The particular bit is working out how to use the physical registers that the computer has to store the variables used in the human-readable version of the program. The pattern of using variables over time is like the picture, and the physical registers are the colours. I'm sure that all makes perfect sense! ;-) There’s a bit of maths to it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-color_problem
