Semi-automatic restructuring of offloadable tasks for many-core accelerators

Work division between the processor and accelerator is a common theme in modern heterogenous computing. Recent efforts (such as LEO and OpenAcc) provide directives that allow the developer to mark code regions in the original application from which offloadable tasks can be generated by the compiler. Auto-tuners and runtime schedulers work with the options (i.e., offloadable tasks) generated at compile time, which is limited by the directives specified by the developer. There is no provision for offload restructuring.
