Program and Papers

This workshop is intended to be a forum for bringing together researchers in the area of feedback-directed compilation and optimization. Talks will be solicited emphasizing new ideas and experience with building feedback-directed systems. There will be a limited number of talks in order to allow the audience to participate. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Analysis to estimate program behavior
• Profile techniques to measure program behavior
• Techniques for estimating the benefit of optimization
• Program analysis based on measurements, estimates, or program behavior
• Compiler optimization based on measurements, estimates, or program behavior
• Adaptive execution, dynamic compilation and continuous profiling/optimization
• Behavior analysis and optimization to improve memory hierarchy performance (e.g., cache-conscious data structures)
• Experiences with real systems

There will be no published proceedings. However, workshop attendees will receive copies of the papers. We chose not to seek publication of the workshop proceedings to allow papers to more easily be published in a later conference or journal.

Workshop Co-Chairs: Brad Calder, Rajiv Gupta, and James Larus
