Abstract
A system and method for computational unification of heterogeneous implicit and explicit processing elements which supports the aggregation of any number of such processing elements. The system and method of the present invention supports the generation of a unified executable program through the use of directive statements which are analyzed in conjunction with the semantic structures in the parsed source code to generate appropriate source code targeted to the implicit and explicit processing elements. The computational unification system and method of the present invention further embodies expertise with the particular programming style and idiom of the various processing elements.
Claims14
A method for programming a heterogeneous computer system including first and second processors, the method comprising:
- adding directives to source code of said first processor to produce first processor source code with directives;
- and
- computationally unifying said first processor source code with directives to produce unified first processor source code and unified second processor source code, wherein said computationally unifying comprises:
- analysis and abstraction of said first processor source code with directives to produce statement templates, source code elements and directive parameters,
- generating directive based statements from said templates, source code elements and directive parameters to produce directive specific code, and
- statement replacing and merging said unified directive specific code and said first processor source code with directives to produce said unified first processor source code and said unified second processor source code.
A computer program product, comprising a non-transitory computer usable medium having a computer readable program code embodied therein, said computer readable program code adapted to be executed to implement a method for programming a heterogeneous computer system including first and second processor types, the method comprising:
- computer readable program code configured to add directives to source code of said first processor type to produce first processor source code with directives;
- and
- computer readable program code configured to computationally unify said first processor source code with directives to produce unified first processor source code and unified second processor source code, wherein said computer readable program code configured to computationally unify comprises:
- computer readable program code configured to analyze and abstract said first processor source code with directives to produce statement templates, source code elements and directive parameters,
- computer readable program code configured to generate directive based statements from said templates, source code elements and directive parameters to produce directive specific code, and
- computer readable program code configured to statement replace and merge said unified directive specific code and said first processor source code with directives to produce said unified first processor source code and said unified second processor source code.
