ABSTRACT:
A computer software compiler system and method for distributing a machine independent computer program, created on a native computer platform, to heterogeneous target computer platforms. The system comprises a producer which receives the machine independent computer program as input and which generates compiler intermediate representation. The system operates in a machine independent manner according to an HPcode-Plus compiler intermediate language. Thus, the compiler intermediate representation is machine independent and represents an architecture neutral distribution format (ANDF). The compiler intermediate representation, being architecture neutral, can be distributed to heterogeneous target computer platforms. At the heterogeneous target computer platforms, the compiler intermediate representation can be translated in a machine dependent manner into object code representations such that the object code representations are architecture dependent, or machine dependent, on the target computer platforms.
