Abstract

We describe several optimizations which can be employed in a dynamic binary translation (DBT) system, where low compilation/translation overhead is essential. These optimizations achieve a high degree of ILP, sometimes even surpassing a static compiler employing more sophisticated, and more time-consuming algorithms [9]. We present results in which we employ these optimizations in a dynamic binary translation system capable of computing oracle parallelism.
