235. Assessing CPU Code Quality

10/2/26, 11:00 AM

Abstract

Code quality is essential for getting high performance: for various reasons (poor performance models, lack of adequate transformations, limited analysis capabilities …) compilers are often producing suboptimal codes, which can significantly hurt performance.

MAQAO is a performance analysis framework offering features designed for assessing CPU (X86 and ARM) code quality, detecting potential...

224. WINIC: An Automatic Cycle-Accurate Multi-Platform Microbenchmarking Tool for Instruction Performance Metrics

10/2/26, 11:30 AM

Abstract

Performance models allow developers to gain important insights into the interaction of their code with the hardware that executes it, and enable them to apply target-specific optimizations. To create in-core performance models for out-of-order processors, architecture-specific performance metrics like latency, throughput, and port binding of individual instructions are indispensable. For x86...
