Talk:Automatic parallelization

Cleanup
This page needs some serious work. I came here doing some preliminary research for a paper in a parallel computing class. Of course, I wasn't planning on using Wikipedia as a for-real source when I turn in the paper, but it's often a good place to go to get started on stuff like this, especially when you want a little overview before you start getting into the fine granularity stuff.

Whatever. Anyway, I cleaned this up a little bit (mostly style and grammar stuff), but I'm no expert, I'm just a first-year CS grad student taking a parallel computing class, so I'd hesitate to add anything too beefy to this article myself.

Here's what I think it could use:


 * Some info on existing implementations of parallelizing compilers
 * Some more information on where the compilers look for parallelisms
 * Some info on why compiler-base parallelization has not proven as effective or as popular as other methods of parallelization.

I may come back and update this a little once I've done some more research. Right now, I don't feel equipped to do it myself.

The article mentions problems with parallelizing sequential programs. Nick's_Class gives some useful theory on how hard this task is. Theultramage (talk) 14:40, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
