ABSTRACT:
Interlocked floating-point instructions are detected, and a register address referring to and assigning an operand in the interlocked instructions is changed to an odd-number address not assigned as any operation at the time of compiling. Next, an instruction not in any register-dependency relation with the interlocked instructions is detected, and the detected instruction is inserted between instructions interlocked with each other. Thus a program can be executed with an improved efficiency.
