文摘Based on a thorough study of the relationship between array element accesses and loop indices of the nested loop, a method is presented with which the staggering relation and the compacting relation between the threads of the nested loop (either with a single linear function or with multiple linear functions) can be determined at compile-time,and accordingly the nested loop (either perfectly nested one or imperfectly nested one)can be restructured to avoid the thrashing problem. Due to its simplicity, our method can be efficiently implemented in any parallel compiler, and the improvement of the performance is significant as shown by the experimental results.
