We present a method for compilation of multi-dimensional stream processing programs from affine recurrence equations with unbounded domains into imperative code with statically allocated memory. The method involves a novel polyhedral schedule transformation called periodic tiling. It accommodates existing polyhedral optimizations to improve memory access patterns and expose parallelism. This enables efficient execution of programming languages with unbounded recurrence equations, as well as optimization of existing languages from which this form can be derived. The method is experimentally evaluated on 5 DSP algorithms with large problem sizes. Results show potential for improved throughput compared to hand-optimized C++ (speedups on a 6-core Intel Xeon CPU up to 10× with a geometric mean 3.3×). 1
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
