  • Patent number: 9785422
    Abstract: A system and method for applying multiple rewritings without contention in a semi-automatic program rewriting system. The method includes: finding dependent ranges of a variable and a modification affecting range of the variable in a target program; determining at least two solutions for target program modification; detecting whether a collision condition exists amongst the one or more solutions; and modifying the program with said one or more solutions if no collision condition exists, while disabling the other solution if a collision condition is detected. A solution includes a rewriting of a segment of a target program code, and there is performed applying one or both of: multiple rewritings in a single solution and multiple rewritings in multiple regions of the target program. When multiple solutions are applied, the second and later solutions are applied to the already rewritten program. The correct application regions of the second and later solutions are identified.

  • Patent number: 8898648
    Abstract: A profiling tool identifies a code region with a false sharing potential. A static analysis tool classifies variables and arrays in the identified code region. A mapping detection library correlates memory access instructions in the identified code region with variables and arrays in the identified code region while a processor is running the identified code region. The mapping detection library identifies one or more instructions at risk, in the identified code region, which are subject to an analysis by a false sharing detection library. A false sharing detection library performs a run-time analysis of the one or more instructions at risk while the processor is re-running the identified code region. The false sharing detection library determines, based on the performed run-time analysis, whether two different portions of the cache memory line are accessed by the generated binary code.

  • Patent number: 8869155
    Abstract: A method for increasing performance of an operation on a distributed memory machine is provided. Asynchronous parallel steps in the operation are transformed into synchronous parallel steps. The synchronous parallel steps of the operation are rearranged to generate an altered operation that schedules memory accesses for increasing locality of reference. The altered operation that schedules memory accesses for increasing locality of reference is mapped onto the distributed memory machine. Then, the altered operation is executed on the distributed memory machine to simulate local memory accesses with virtual threads to check cache performance within each node of the distributed memory machine.

  • Patent number: 8819346
    Abstract: A computer implemented method analyzes shared memory accesses during execution of an application program. The method includes instrumenting events of shared memory accesses in the application program, where the application program is to be executed on a target configuration having p nodes; executing the application program using p1 processing nodes, where p1 is less than p and satisfies a constraint. For accesses made by the executing application program, the method determines a target thread and maps determined target threads to either a remote node or a local node corresponding to a remote memory access and to a local memory access, respectively. Also disclosed is a computer-readable storage medium that stores a program of executable instructions that implements the method, and a data processing system. The invention can be implemented using a language such as Unified Parallel C (UPC) directed to a partitioned global address space (PGAS) paradigm.

  • Patent number: 8490061
    Abstract: During runtime of a binary program file, streams of instructions are executed and memory references, generated by instrumentation applied to given ones of the instructions that refer to memory locations, are collected. A transformation is performed, based on the executed streams of instructions and the collected memory references, to obtain a table. The table lists memory events of interest for active data structures for each function in the program file. The transformation is performed to translate memory addresses for given ones of the instructions and given ones of the data structures into locations and variable names in a source file corresponding to the binary file. At least the memory events of interest are displayed, and the display is organized so as to correlate the memory events of interest with corresponding ones of the data structures.

  • Patent number: 8327325
    Abstract: A target application is automatically tuned. A list of solutions for identified performance bottlenecks in a target application is retrieved from a storage device. A plurality of modules is executed to compute specific parameters for solutions contained in the list of solutions. A list of modification commands associated with specific parameters computed by the plurality of modules is generated. The list of modification commands associated with the specific parameters is appended to a command sequence list. The list of modification commands is implemented in the target application. Specific source code regions corresponding to the identified performance bottlenecks in the target application are automatically tuned using the implemented list of modification commands. Then, the tuned target application is stored in the storage device.

  • Patent number: 8225291
    Abstract: Detecting performance bottlenecks in a target application is provided. In response to receiving hotspot selections from a user interface, bottleneck rules are extracted from a database. A hotspot is a region of source code that exceeds a time threshold to execute in the target application. Metrics needed to evaluate the bottleneck rules extracted from the database are identified. The identified metrics are computed. It is determined whether each bottleneck rule extracted from the database is evaluated to true using the computed metrics for hotspots in the target application. In response to determining that a bottleneck rule is evaluated to true using an appropriate computed metric corresponding to the bottleneck rule, a bottleneck description is created for the bottleneck rule. Then, the bottleneck description is sent to the user interface.

  • Patent number: 8214806
    Abstract: A method for profiling performance of a system includes steps of: monitoring execution of the system at multiple points during the system's operation; analyzing results derived from the monitoring in order to provide analyzed results; reconfiguring the monitoring non-uniformly according to the analyzed results; and repeatedly performing iterations of the above steps until a particular event occurs. The iterations may be terminated upon: reaching a specified level of analysis precision, determining a source of one or more performance bottlenecks, determining a source of unexpectedly high output or low completion time, completing a predefined number of iterations, reaching an endpoint of an application, or having performed iterations for a specified period of time.
