Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for reducing the number of assembly instructions included in a computer program. The technique involves receiving a directed acyclic graph (DAG) that includes a plurality of nodes, where each node includes an assembly instruction of the computer program, hierarchically parsing the plurality of nodes to identify at least two assembly instructions that are vectorizable and can be replaced by a single vectorized assembly instruction, and replacing the at least two assembly instructions with the single vectorized assembly instruction.
