Language and Compiler Support for Auto-Tuning Variable-Accuracy Algorithms

Approximating ideal program outputs is a common technique for solving computationally difficult problems, for adhering to processing or timing constraints, and for performance optimization in situations where perfect precision is not necessary. To this end, programmers often use approximation algori...
