The paper titled “Profiling over Adaptive Ranges” received the best
paper award at CGO ’06 (4th Annual ACM International Symposium on Code
Generation and Optimization), which was held in New York during March 26-29. The
paper describes a new geometry-based scheme to summarize the huge number of
events processed by a modern computer system. The compact summary, called RAP,
adaptively and dynamically zooms onto event ranges of interest, thus
creating a profile of the program behavior which can then be used for
processor optimization.
