In the near future a larger set of metrics to monitor program behaviour will be much more easily accessible are expected to become available in some computer architectures. This development leads to the possibility of using such metrics at runtime to change the code being executed to improve performance. Some of the developments that will be necessary to realize this vision include (1) a control mechanism to re-focus the hardware runtime instrumentation framework; (2) a cost-effective data representation and reduction framework that will have to resolve trade-offs between the amount of information gathered and the computational cost of the gathering and analysis; and (3) a set of new code transformations based on path specialization.

在不久的将来，预计在某些计算机体系结构中将可以更轻松地访问一组更大的用于监视程序行为的指标。这种开发使得在运行时使用此类指标来更改正在执行的代码以提高性能成为可能。实现这一愿景所需的一些开发包括：（1）重新关注硬件运行时仪器框架的控制机制； (2) 具有成本效益的数据表示和缩减框架，必须解决收集的信息量与收集和分析的计算成本之间的权衡； (3)一组基于路径专门化的新代码转换。
