Restructuring Arrays for Efficient Parallel Loop Execution

In a sequential program, data are often structured in a way that is optimized for a sequential execution.However, when the program is parallelized, the data access pattern may change drastically. If thestructure of the data is not changed accordingly, parallel performance will suffer. In this paper, weconsider this problem in the context of runtime loop parallelization [8, 9], which is a general techniqueto parallelize loops not amenable to compile-time analysis.In a parallel execution of...
