....with code compression is how to locate branch jump call targets in compressed code since the original offsets will not point to correct locations after compression . Our approach is to change branch offsets to point to the new compressed space addresses first proposed by Lefurgy et al. [5]. Branch offsets are patched after the compression phase. To simplify our design, we forced our targets to be aligned at word boundaries, as this simplifies the decoding tree. Patching the branch offsets involves a) compressing the original program and creating a map between native instruction ....

....fast. The second is a software version of IBM s CodePack which attains better compression ratios, though it increases execution time. 5.3. 1 Dictionary compression The dictionary compression scheme takes advantage of the observation that the instructions in programs are highly repetitive [Lefurgy97, Lefurgy98]. Each unique 32 bit instruction word in the original program is put in a dictionary. Each instruction in the original program is then replaced with a 16 bit index into the dictionary. Because the instruction words are replaced with a short index and because the dictionary overhead is usually ....
