  • Vectorizing combinations of program operations
    Patent number: 8640112
    Abstract: System and method for vectorizing combinations of program operations. Program code is received that includes a combination of individually vectorizable program portions that collectively implement a first computation. Each individually vectorizable program portion has at least one array input and at least one array output. The combination of individually vectorizable program portions is transformed into a single vectorizable program portion that is or includes a functional composition of the combination of individually vectorizable program portions. Vectorized executable code implementing the first computation is generated based on the single vectorizable program portion. The generated executable code is directed to SIMD (Single-Instruction-Multiple-Data) computing units of a target processor.
