Automated Optimization of a Computation for Different Architectures

DSLGen (Domain Specific Language Generator) is a program generation system in which application programs can be written in a domain specific language that is independent of the execution platform architecture and yet can be targeted to arbitrary existing and future execution platforms in a way that exploits the performance or computation improvement opportunities specific to those platforms. This allows switching from one execution platform to another without reprogramming the applications. The generation of target programs is fully automatic and requires no user input or action beyond the specification of the computation and the separate specification of the desired features of the target execution platform.
