Abstract

This paper explores new compilation methods, including Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and a new adaptation of Sethi-Ullman numbering, to aggressively restructure basic block code and allocate registers so that the number of registers used does not exceed the number available. Although the approach applies to a wide range of target architectures, it is investigated primarily for nanocontrollers, which have a combination of properties that make avoiding spills particularly difficult, but mandatory.
