Reduction of Complexity and Automation of Parallel Execution through Loop Level Parallelism

SIMD (single instruction multiple data) is a processor architecture classification from Flynn's taxonomy. The concept is that a single instruction set operates on multiple units of data simultaneously. Computers use this processor architecture are known as array processors or vector processors. Most computers in use today are SISD (single instruction single data) though allowing a single instruction to operate on multiple data can also be applied to a virtual machine that is capable of parallel execution through the use of multi-threading/multi-core processors, or distributed parallel execution on a multi-computer grid. This paper proposes a language structure that applies the SIMD concept to the Java virtual machine. The motive is to reduce the complexity of the code and ease implementation of parallelization by running a single set of instructions concurrently on an entire collection of objects.
