  • Abstract
    This paper surveys scheduling techniques for loop nests with uniform dependences. First, we introduce the hyperplane method and related variants. Then we extend it by using a different affine scheduling for each statement within the nest. In both cases, we present a new, constructive, and efficient method to determine optimal solutions, i.e., schedules whose total execution time is minimum
