Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to compiler compile code to generate dataflow code are described. An example compiler apparatus includes an intermediate representation transformer to transform input software code to intermediate representation code; an instruction selector to insert machine instructions of a target execution platform in the intermediate representation code to generate machine intermediate representation code; and a target machine transformer to: convert a portion of the machine intermediate representation code to dataflow code to generate dataflow intermediate representation code; and allocate registers within the dataflow intermediate representation code.
