Abstract : The recognition and exploitation of parallelism is a difficult problem for restructuring compilers. We present a method for evaluating the effectiveness of parallelizing compilers in general and of specific compiler techniques. We also report two groups of measurements that are the results of using this technique. One evaluates a commercially available parallelizer, KAP/Concurrent, and the other compares three different dependence analysis strategies. 1,
