Applying Polyhedral Transformation to Fortran Programs

Abstract Details

A large number of computationally intensive scientific programs still exist as Fortran programs. High performance compilers aim at reducing the execution time of programs by source-to-source translation involving appropriate transformations. The polyhedral model for compiler optimization is a powerful mathematical framework to abstract and represent the computation in the loops and the data dependencies. There are powerful transformation and optimization techniques that can be applied using this model. This research aims at applying such polyhedral transformations to Fortran programs and characterizing them. We present the design and implementation of identifying the Static Control Parts (SCoPs) in Fortran programs and optimizing them using Polyopt, a fully automatic source-to-source translator. We have instrumented this compiler framework with the help of Polybench benchmarks and characterized the effectiveness for various transformations in the polyhedral model applied to Fortran programs.
