A Quantitative Analysis for An Efficient Memory Allocation

Hong Yun Shik · The Transactions of the Korea Information Processing Society · 1998

Memory allocation problem has two independent goals: minimization of number of memories and minimization of number of registers in one memory Our concern is the ordering of the bindings during memory allocation. We formulate and analyze three different memory allocation algorithms b) changing their binding order. It is shown that when we combine these subtasks and solve them simultaneously by heuristic cost function significant savings (up to 20%) can be obtained in the total area of memories.
