Abstract :
We propose an algorithm, based on a heuristic fitness function, to allocate files for compilation in available processors. The novelty of the algorithm resides in the explicit allowance for heterogeneous processors and in the flexibility of application of different heuristics, in particular in their use in a look-ahead approach.
