Compilers often translate source code for a high-level language, such as C++, to object code for the current computer architecture, such as Intel x64. The object modules produced from multiple ...

Microsoft’s compiler-level Spectre fix shows how hard this problem will be to solve Investigation of Microsoft's compiler changes show that much of the time, they won't fix Spectre.

Here’s what happens with a compiler: human-written code gets compiled into low-level machine code, creating a natively-executable result for a particular processor.

Trace-level speculative multithreaded processors exploit trace-level speculation by means of two threads working cooperatively. One thread, called the speculative thread, executes instructions ahead ...

San Jose, CA – December 20, 2000 – Xilinx announced Forge, a new design technology for creating FPGA implementations. Complex design modules and algorithms can now be created in high-level software ...

Efficient code generation for DSPs and VLIW processors is a difficult process. So compilers are often created for a particular processor architecture to enable programmers to employ specific ...
