TL;DR: This paper presents the results of the investigation of code positioning techniques using execution profile data as input into the compilation process to reduce the overhead of the instruction memory hierarchy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the HPcode-plus compiler intermediate language is used for distributing a machine independent computer program, created on a native computer platform, to heterogeneous target computer platforms.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use statistical information obtained by running the computer code with test data to determine a new ordering for the code blocks, which places code blocks that are often executed after one another close to one another in the computer's memory.

TL;DR: This paper describes how a small set of primitive instructions combined with careful frequency analysis and clever programming allows the Hewlett-Packard Precision Architecture integer multiplication and division implementation to provide adequate performance at little or no hardware cost.
