Abstract

Prior studies of program restructuring to increase the degree of locality of a program in a paged virtual memory system were restricted to statically allocated codes only. This work develops a restructuring methodology for block structured languages like Algol, with dynamic memory allocation. We subsequently restructure and analyze different classes of programs using this methodology and study the performance gains realized with different restructuring heuristics.
