Abstract

The PMLS parallelizing compiler for Standard ML is based upon the automatic instantiation of algorithmic skeletons at sites of higher order function use. PMLS seeks to optimise run-time parallel behaviour by combining skeleton cost models with Structural Operational Semantics rule counts for HOF argument functions. In this paper, the formulation of a general rule count cost model as a set of over-determined linear equations is discussed, and their solution by singular value decomposition, and by a genetic algorithm, are presented. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
