Abstract

NOVELTY - The method involves traversing a tree of potential complex computer operations; and pruning the tree for optimality under constraints. The optimality comprises maximization of a function of merit. The constraints comprise a convexity constraint, a maximum-input-multiplicity constraint, or a maximum-output-multiplicity constraint. USE - For determining complex computer operation for computer application. ADVANTAGE - Enhances processing performance by automatically forming extensions from high-level application code. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for a system for determining a complex computer operation for a computer application.

Computer

A computer is a machine that can be programmed to carry out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations (computation) automatically. Modern digital electronic computers can perform generic sets of operations known as programs. These programs enable computers to perform a wide range of tasks. A computer system is a nominally complete computer that includes the hardware, operating system (main software), and peripheral equipment needed and used for full operation.

Computer science

Computer science is the study of computation, information, and automation. Computer science spans theoretical disciplines (such as algorithms, theory of computation, and information theory) to applied disciplines (including the design and implementation of hardware and software). Though more often considered an academic discipline, computer science is closely related to computer programming. Algorithms and data structures are central to computer science.

Central processing unit

A central processing unit (CPU)—also called a central processor or main processor—is the most important processor in a given computer. Its electronic circuitry executes instructions of a computer program, such as arithmetic, logic, controlling, and input/output (I/O) operations. This role contrasts with that of external components, such as main memory and I/O circuitry, and specialized coprocessors such as graphics processing units (GPUs). The form, design, and implementation of CPUs have changed over time, but their fundamental operation remains almost unchanged.
