Abstract:
1. A method for processing a multidimensional array object comprising array objects, said multidimensional array object and said array objects being digital data objects storable in addressable data storage locations of a computer, said method comprising the steps of: managing flags for said multidimensional array object at execution time of a process for elements of said multidimensional array object, said flags being dynamically alterable at execution time to represent whether it is possible to optimize said process for elements of said multidimensional array object according to a current execution state of said process, said process being a defined set of instructions executable by said computer; executing a machine code performing said process, said machine code being selected from among a plurality of machine codes performing said process according to a state of said flags; and inverting said flags when a predetermined condition is no longer met; wherein said predetermined condition is whether a base array of a multidimensional array object is allocated to consecutive memory areas; and wherein the machine code is either a machine code optimized or a machine code not optimized according to the predetermined condition.
