Data Dependence Analysis , Parallel Compiler

For the past several decades, parallel processing has become an important research subject in the computer science area. According to the statistics, in executing a numerical program, most of time is spent on the loops. If we can use the technique of loop restructuring in the parallelizing compiler such that the conventional sequential program can be executed by exploiting the characteristics of vector machine or parallel machine, the execution efficiency will be greatly improved.

The women¡¦s chorus has been a minor category in the bulk of western music history. It was not until the nineteenth century that a female chorus had the opportunity to perform as the same way that a male or mixed chorus had. Only then, did composers start to compose part-songs for female chorus, and Schubert is one of the pioneers. He composed nine pieces for female chorus.
