[comp.sys.m88k] m88k instruction scheduling

brock@tuvie.UUCP (Inst.f.Prakt.Info 1802) (05/24/91)

I have seen hints to an instruction scheduler (aka instruction reordering
program) in a few places, e.g. DG/UX release notes and GNU C source.
However, apparently it does not come with DG/UX (we have 4.32).

Is there such a program, and can I get it? If yes, how?
I would also appreciate additional information about it, e.g. what method
does the instruction scheduler use? Is there a paper about it?

Please send answers to

The reason I ask is that we are doing a paper on instruction scheduling
using Constraint Logic Programming (it will appear in the Proceedings of the
"Programming Language Implementation and Logic Programming" (PLILP '91)
Conference, probably as Springer LNCS), we use the 88100 as an example
and we would like to have something with which we can compare our approach.

Thank you
