Perfect Club LODs

The Perfect Club consists of 13 Fortran programs, ranging in size from 509 to 18,545 lines of source code. Each program was compiled using scf90 and the resulting dump of the intermediate representation was analyzed to determine the type and source code position of each LOD. This information was combined with run-time statistics obtained by profiling each program with tcov on a Sun SPARC architecture to obtain an accurate prediction of execution frequency for each individual LOD in the compiled program. Table 1 below details the number of each type of LOD that we can expect to be executed for each program in the Perfect Club.
