Adaptive Code Flow Optimizer (ACFO)

The Adaptive Code Flow Optimizer (ACFO) is a Python framework that dynamically optimizes the execution order of function calls, prioritizing high-cost operations while respecting dependencies. By leveraging runtime profiling and a Control Flow Graph (CFG), ACFO enhances performance in applications like data pipelines, web servers, and IoT devices without requiring code modifications.

Key Features

• Dynamic Optimization: Reorders function calls based on a heuristic ( h(v) = \text{frequency} \cdot \text{cost} ).
• Dependency-Aware: Ensures correct execution order using a CFG parsed with Python's ast module.
• Transparent: Integrates seamlessly with existing Python code.
• Open-Source: Licensed under MIT, welcoming contributions.

Why Use ACFO?

• Performance Gains: Reduces execution time by prioritizing costly functions.
• Ease of Use: No need to rewrite code; ACFO profiles and optimizes automatically.
• Versatility: Applicable to scientific computing, web development, and embedded systems.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/acfo.git
   cd acfo
   

2. Create a virtual environment:

   python -m venv .venv
   source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
   

3. Install dependencies (none required currently):

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

4. Install ACFO as a package (optional):

   pip install .
   

Quick Start

Optimize a simple program with two functions:

from acfo import ACFO

def a():
    time.sleep(0.1)  # Simulates a costly task
    return "A"

def b():
    time.sleep(0.05)  # Simulates a lightweight task
    return "B"

acfo = ACFO()
acfo.parse_code("""
def a():
    b()
def b():
    pass
""")
functions = {"a": a, "b": b}
calls = []
for _ in range(10):
    acfo.monitor_execution("a", a)
    acfo.monitor_execution("b", b)
    calls.append("a")
    calls.append("b")
print("Initial Calls:", calls)
calls = []
acfo.execute_optimized(functions, calls, 20)
print("Optimized Calls:", calls)

Expected Output:

Initial Calls: ['a', 'b', 'a', 'b', ..., 'a', 'b']
Optimized Calls: ['a', 'b', 'a', 'b', ..., 'a', 'b']

Use Cases

• Data Pipelines: Optimize workflows like read_data -> transform_data -> write_data (see examples/data_pipeline.py).
• Web Servers: Reduce latency in Flask/Django by reordering middleware or route handlers.
• IoT Devices: Minimize execution time in resource-constrained environments.
