Abstract

Data paging is of primary concern for problems with large data bases and for many types of array problems. We show that prepaging reduces the paging problems of array algorithms operating on large arrays. We also show that the use of a submatrix algorithm considerably improves the locality. Finally, we consider methods of automating these performance-improvement techniques by means of a compiler in the context of a structured array language.
