Efficient code generation for DSPs and VLIW processors is a difficult process. So compilers are often created for a particular processor architecture to enable programmers to employ specific features ...

According to researchers from MIT, code written explicitly to take advantage of parallel computing usually loses the benefit of a compiler’s optimisation strategies. The reason, they say, is because ...

Like C, Ada is a compiled language. This means that the compiler will parse the source code and emit machine code native to the target hardware. The Ada compiler we’ll be discussing in this course is ...
