Abstract

The dependence analysis and testing problem has been well studied in parallelizing compilers. All of the existing dependence decision algorithms, however, are conservative in considering data dependence between statements occurring in conditional branches. We present a new dependence test which can detect disjoint regions of an iteration space, and therefore reports accurate dependencies for a class of conditional statements.
