Using Timed Petri Net to Model Instruction-Level Loop Scheduling with Resource Constraints

This paper uses timed Petri net to model and analyze the problem of instructionlevel loop scheduling with resource constraints, which has been proven to be an NP complete problem. First, we present a new timed Petri net model to integrate functional unit allocation, register allocation and spilling ilno a unified theoretical framework.Then we develop a state subgraph, called Register Allocation Solution Graph, which can effectively describe the major behavior of our new model. The maill property of this sta…
