Abstract
Methods and systems consistent with the present invention allocate memory for program data during fast Fourier transform computation in a way that is favorable for a given access pattern for the program data, and for the memory architecture of a given data processing system. As a result, the overhead associated with accessing the program data is reduced compared to typical memory allocation performed during fast Fourier transform computation. Thus, a fast Fourier transform computing program that manipulates the program data typically runs faster and produces results more quickly.
