6 <title>BBV: an experimental basic block vector generation tool</title>
16 A basic block is a linear section of code with one entry point and one exit
17 point. A <emphasis>basic block vector</emphasis> (BBV) is a list of all
18 basic blocks entered during program execution, and a count of how many
19 times each basic block was run.
23 BBV is a tool that generates basic block vectors for use with the
