A Modal Model of Memory
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the problem of automatically guiding program transformations for locality, despite incomplete information due to complicated program structures, changing target architectures, and lack of knowledge of the properties of the input data. Our system, the modal model of memory, uses limited static analysis and bounded runtime experimentation to produce performance formulas that can be used to make runtime locality transformation decisions. Static analysis is performed once per program to determine its memory reference properties, using modes, a small set of parameterized, kernel reference patterns. Once per architectural system, our system automatically performs a set of experiments to determine a family of kernel performance formulas. The system can use these kernel formulas to synthesize a performance formula for any program’s mode tree. Finally, with program transformations represented as mappings between mode trees, the generated performance formulas can be used to guide transformation decisions.

The modal split model is one of the steps of the classical four-step travel demand planning. Predictive, descriptive, and prescriptive modal split models are essential to make a balance between travel demand and supply. To calibrate these models, it is necessary to detect and employ influential independent variables that are related to characteristics of travel modes, individual and family attr...
