Abstract: A compiler converts a human readable high level program into a corresponding machine language program. This invention improves data-flow analysis. A compiler implementing data-flow analysis typically relies on an iterative algorithm for data-flow analysis. According to the prior art determination of the exact number of loop iterations required for convergence was believed impractical. The prior art selected a maximum number of data-flow analysis iterations relatively arbitrarily. This invention calculates the number of iterations for convergence using backedges in a control flow graph of the source program. This permits the data-flow analysis to be run for exactly the number of iterations needed for convergence. In the event of convergence, an extra, useless iteration is avoided. In the event of non-convergence, valid data can be separated from invalid data, whereas all data was previously discarded.

Abstract: Executing a FOTA (firmware over the air) method in a LoRa network having low throughput and low power. the transceivers used in the end nodes and in the LoRa gateway are capable of selecting a certain frequency channel and deactivating the LoRa mode. If the spread-spectrum LoRa mode is deactivated, both transceivers at the end node and the gateway function instead using a basic FSK (frequency-shift keying) modulation scheme. This modulation scheme is capable of providing a higher data rate at the expense of reducing the “path balance,” which indicates how much attenuation the transmitted signal may sustain while still being able to be decoded at the receiver. When using the FSK modulation scheme at a high data rate, a FOTA method may be easily carried out, since the end node must have its receiver activated only for a short time.
