Patent attributes
Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for automatically and adaptively optimizing compilation of application code using a rule-based optimization analyzer (RUBOA) that can command a compiler to apply and adapt optimizations at the code segment level according to gathered performance data. For example, source code can be canonically compiled, and annotations can associate compiled code sections with source code sections. The generated binary can then be executed and monitored to gather performance characteristics. The RUBOA can apply the gathered performance characteristics and annotations to a pre-defined rule set to generate compiler optimizations, each associated with and parametrically tailored to respective source code segments. The RUBOA can automatically generate optimization control data from the generated compiler optimizations, and the source application code can be re-compiled according to the set of optimization control data to generate executable code that is adaptively optimized at the code segment level.
