  • Relative addressing usage for CPU performance
    Patent number: 9122495
    Abstract: The embodiments provide a computing device for incorporating data into code such that the data is relative to the code and, thereby, available for relative addressing. The computing device may include a code generator configured to receive source code from a source code database, and generate executable object code from the source code. The executable object code may include at least one instruction referencing data having an absolute address from a data source. Also, the computing device may include a data incorporator configured to transfer the data from the data source into the executable object code, where the transferred data is relative to the at least one instruction. Further, the computing device may include a relative addresser configured to adjust the at least one instruction to include a relative address for the transferred data including converting the absolute address to the relative address.
