Search-based Optimization for Compiler Machine-code Generation

Clauson, Aran 10 October 2013 (has links)
Compilation encompasses many steps. Parsing turns the input program into a more manageable syntax tree. Verification ensures that the program makes some semblance of sense. Finally, code generation transforms the internal abstract program representation into an executable program. Compilers strive to produce the best possible programs. Optimizations are applied at nearly every level of compilation. Instruction Scheduling is one of the last compilation tasks. It is part of code generation. Instruction Scheduling replaces the internal graph representation of the program with an instruction sequence. The scheduler should produce some sequence that the hardware can execute quickly. Considering that Instruction Scheduling is an NP-Complete optimization problem, it is interesting that schedules are usually generated by a greedy, heuristic algorithm called List Scheduling. Given search-based algorithms' successes in other NP-Complete optimization domains, we ask whether search-based algorithms can be applied to Instruction Scheduling to generate superior schedules without unacceptably increasing compilation time. To answer this question, we formulate a problem description that captures practical scheduling constraints. We show that this problem is NP-Complete given modest requirements on the actual hardware. We adapt three different search algorithms to Instruction Scheduling in order to show that search is an effective Instruction Scheduling technique. The schedules generated by our algorithms are generally shorter than those generated by List Scheduling. Search-based scheduling does take more time, but the increases are acceptable for some compilation domains.

Rhapsody on small processor platforms

Andersson, Per-Oskar January 2008 (has links)
<p>Rhapsody is a Model-Driven Development (MDD) tool for embedded and real-time system design. The purpose of this thesis is to determine if Rhapsody can be used for software development on small processor platforms such as the Atmel AVR. Rhapsody is normally used on platforms running an operating system. Therefore certain adaptations are needed in order to use it on platforms without an operating system. These adaptations and their affect on the usability of the tool, advantages and disadvantages are all studied while porting AVR-software to Rhapsody on one of CC Systems products, the robust on-board computer CC Pilot XL II.</p> / <p>Rhapsody är ett verktyg för modelldriven utveckling och design av inbyggda system och realtidssystem. Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka om Rhapsody kan användas för att utveckla mjukvara till små processorplattformar som Atmel’s AVR. Då Rhapsody normalt används till plattformar med ett operativsystem behöver vissa modifieringar göras för att möjliggöra utveckling mot plattformar utan operativsystem. Dessa modifieringar, deras för och nackdelar samt påverkan på utvecklingsprocessen undersöks medan AVR-mjukvara porteras till Rhapsody. Mjukvaran som porteras är en del av styrsystemet till en av CC Systems produkter: CC Pilot XL II, en robust fordonsdator.</p>

Translating Discrete Time SIMULINK to SIGNAL

Messaoud, Safa 02 July 2014 (has links)
As Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) are getting more complex and safety critical, Model Based Design (MBD), which consists of building formal models of a system in order to be used in verification and correct-by-construction code generation, is becoming a promising methodology for the development of the embedded software of such systems. This design paradigm significantly reduces the development cost and time while guaranteeing better robustness, capability and correctness with respect to the original specifications, when compared with the traditional ad-hoc design methods. SIMULINK has been the most popular tool for embedded control design in research as well as in industry, for the last decades. As SIMULINK does not have formal semantics, the application of the model based design methodology and tools to its models is very limited. In this thesis, we present a semantic translator that transform discrete time SIMULINK models into SIGNAL programs. The choice of SIGNAL is motivated by its polychronous formalism that enhances synchronous programming with asynchronous concurrency, as well as, by the ability of its compiler of generating deterministic multi thread code. Our translation involves three major steps: clock inference, type inference and hierarchical top-down translation. We validate the semantic preservation of our prototype tool by testing it on different SIMULINK models. / Master of Science

A Design Language for Scientific Computing Software in Drasil / Design Language for SCS

MacLachlan, Brooks January 2020 (has links)
Drasil is a framework for generating high-quality documentation and code for Scientific Computing Software (SCS). Despite the tendency of SCS code to follow an Input-Calculate-Output design pattern, there are many design variabilities in SCS. Drasil should therefore allow its users to specify a design for their generated program. To this end, a language that encodes the design variabilities present in SCS was implemented in Drasil. Drasil's code generator was updated to generate code based on a user's design choices. A Generic Object-Oriented Language, GOOL, from which Python, Java, C#, or C++ code can be generated, was implemented. Drasil's code generator targets GOOL, enabling the choice of programming language to be included in the design language. Other choices included in the language are related to the modularity, the generation of record classes to bundle variables, the inlining of constants, the code types used to represent different mathematical spaces, which external library to use to solve ODEs, the behaviour when a constraint is violated, and the presence of documentation, logging, or a controller. The design language is implemented as a record type in Haskell, and is designed to be understandable, extensible, and usable. A design specification can be easily changed, to generate a different version of the same program, which would often require time-consuming refactoring if the program was written manually. During the regular build process of Drasil, working code is generated in all four target languages for three examples of SCS, each using a different design specification. / Thesis / Master of Applied Science (MASc)

Visual Studio Add-in for Proxy Object Code Generation

Thangavel, Gopalakrishnan January 2013 (has links)
In recent years, Component models have become common for desktop and server-side applications. But it has not obtained such importance in case of embedded real-time systems.  Therefore, there has been a lot of research undergoing for introducing such component models for embedded real-time systems.  This thesis work proposes an alternative approach for doing this, by the generation of proxies.   The idea is to provide an extension to an existing binary component and modify it to adapt to the targeted real-time operating system. Rather than modifying the existing component, a new component is generated, which is called as the proxy component.  This newly generated proxy component provides the same method implementation as the original component and also provides some additional services.  These services enable these components to meet the needs of targeted embedded real-time systems.  In order to achieve this, a Visual Studio 2008 add-in has been created. This add-in is capable of inspecting an existing Smart Device Component and visualizes the Classes, Interfaces and Methods in the original component in its UI.  In addition to this, the add-in also shows the available services to be included in the proxy component.  The UI of the add-in is designed in such a way that, the user is able to select the services, which should be included in the proxy component.  Based on the user’s selection, the add-in generates the proxy component with the additional services.

TENA Software Decommutation System

Wigent, Mark A., Mazzario, Andrea M. 10 1900 (has links)
The Test and Training Enabling Architecture (TENA) is implemented within the TENA Software Decommutation System (TSDS) in order to bring TENA as close as possible to the sensor interface. Key attributes of TSDS include: • TSDS is a software-based approach to telemetry stream decommutation implemented within Java. This offers technical advantages such as platform independence and portability. • TSDS uses auto code generation technologies to further reduce the effort associated with updating decommutation systems to support new telemetry stream definitions. Users of TSDS within the range are not required to have detailed knowledge of proprietary protocols, nor are they required to have an understanding of how to implement decommutation within software. The use of code generation in software decommutation offers potential cost savings throughout the entire T&E community. • TSDA offers a native TENA interface so that telemetry data can be published directly into TENA object models.
