Abstract
A method of dynamic parallelization for programs in systems having at least two processors includes examining computer code of a program to be performed by the system, determining a largest possible parallel region in the computer code, classifying data to be used by the program based on a usage pattern and initiating multiple, concurrent processes to perform the program. The multiple, concurrent processes ensure a baseline performance that is at least as efficient as a sequential performance of the computer code.
