Data Sharing Analysis for TitaniumData Sharing Analysis for TitaniumThis research was conducted by Ben Liblit, Alex Aiken, and Katherine Yelick.
Parallel programs share data in ways that may not be obvious at the source level. Understanding a program’s data sharing behavior is critical to understanding the program as a whole, and is also a necessary component for numerous program analysis, optimization, and run time clients. We report on the design of and experience with an implementation of a data sharing analysis for the Titanium programming language.
