Abstract

In this article we examine the role played by the interproceduralanalysis of array accesses in the automatic parallelization ofFortran programs. We use the PTRAN system to provide measurementsof several benchmarks to compare different methods of representinginterprocedurally accessed arrays. We examine issues concerning theeffectiveness of automatic parallelization using these methods andthe efficiency of a precise summarization method.
