Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, are provided for computing performance estimates. Performance estimates are provided for resources based on candidate targeting criteria included in requests for the performance estimates. The performance estimates are computed based on previously received resource requests that are included in a relevant request group. The relevant request group is defined to include resource requests that include request criteria that match reference targeting criteria. The request criteria can include data characterizing a user for which the resource is being selected. In some implementations, request groups can be defined by analyzing previously-received resource requests and including the resource requests in request groups having reference targeting criteria that are matched by the request criteria.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention is a technique to hide latency in program traces. Blocks of instructions between start and end of a critical section are associated with color information. The blocks correspond to a program trace and containing a wait instruction. The wait instruction is sunk down the blocks globally to the end of the critical section using the color information and a dependence constraint on the wait instruction.

Abstract: Critical sections in a programming code may be ordered based at least in part on code motions. A flow graph of the code including the critical section may be generated. Two initiative motions may be performed based on the flow graph to identify possible positions of critical codes in the flow graph. Dependence relationship of critical sections may be determined based on the positions of critical sections. Using the dependence relationship information, the order of critical sections may be determined. The determined order of critical sections may be further used by a compiler to perform optimizations for the code.

Abstract: Critical sections used for multiple threads in a parallel program to access shared resource may be selected to merge with each other to reduce the number of signals/tokens used to create critical sections. Critical section merge may be based on a summarized dependence graph which is obtained from an instruction level dependence graph constructed based on a result of critical section minimization.

Abstract: Instructions that have no dependence constraint between them and other instructions in a loop of a critical section may be moved out of the critical section so that the size of the critical section may be reduced. A flow graph of a program including the critical section may be generated, which includes loops. The flow graph may be transformed based on which any unnecessary instructions in loops may be moved out of the critical section. Subsequently, the original flow graph of the critical section may be recovered from the transformed flow graph.
