CIS 662 – Computer Architecture – Fall 2004 - Class 16 – 11/09/04 29 Detecting and Enhancing Loop Level Parallelism Recursion creates loop-carried dependence But sometimes it may parallelizable if distance between dependent elements is >1 for(i=1; i<=100; i=i+1) { A[i] = A[i-1] + B[i]; } for(i=1; i<=100; i=i+1) { A[i] = A[i-5] + B[i]; }
