Parallel Architectures and Compilation Techniques: Proceedings of the Ifip Wg10.3 Working Conference, Pact '94, Montreal, Canada, 24-26 August 1994

Fine and medium grain parallelism continues to hold its own as a vital, vibrant research topic. Within the area, new developments in superscalar and VLIW architectures and their associated compilation techniques, have provided exciting new avenues to extract performances from a slowing technology curve. Comprising 28 full-length papers and a number of short (poster) papers, this publication offers a high quality exploration of the current state-of-the art in the field. It should be of particular interest to those involved in control structures and microprogramming; processor architectures; computer systems implementation; programming techniques; and software engineering.
