Zusammenfassung:One embodiment relates to a computer-implemented method of compiling a software program into an executable binary file, including determining a data layout in the binary file and a data layout in the executable's dynamically allocated memory. The method includes taking into account data types of data as a factor in determining a data layout for the binary file and for the executable's dynamically allocated memory, wherein the data types include a floating-point data type and a non-floating-point data type. Other embodiments, aspects and features are also disclosed herein.
