Abstract :
A just-in-time (JIT) scheduling approach that incorporates register optimizations during scheduling is introduced. The technique is implemented in a hierarchical list scheduler, SMART, that is part of the Cathedral silicon compiler. Due to its computational complexity it can schedule hierarchical graphs containing a thousand or more operations. Experiments on relevant industrial examples show a gain in registers of more than 25% due to the proposed register optimization
