You might say, "The approaches include both runtime information and the program's structure as important factors [or criteria or considerations], resulting in a plan that is more effective and has a greater chance of achieving success." – Sven Yargs Feb 26 at 3:34
structure of the program OR program structure – StoneyB Feb 26 at 3:34

You can replace the question mark with account for, take into account, or consider, giving results like the following (which also correct some other problems with the sentence):

These approaches account for runtime information and the program structure, thereby generating a more effective plan with higher chance of success.
