Yin-yang: concealing the deep embedding of DSLs

Martin Odersky, Christoph Koch, Amir Shaikhha, Sandro Stucki, Vojin Jovanovic, Vladimir Nikolaev

Deeply embedded domain-specific languages (EDSLs) intrinsically compromise programmer experience for improved program performance. Shallow EDSLs complement them by trading program performance for good programmer experience. We present Yin-Yang, a framework ...

Scala AST Persistence

Adrien Ghosn, Eugene Burmako, Mathieu Baptiste Demarne

The Scala compiler uses ASTs (abstract syntax trees) as an intermediate representation before generating bytecode. With the development of Scala macros which expand trees at compile time, being able to access, modify and recompose ASTs within the compilati ...

Surgical Precision JIT Compilers

Tiark Rompf, Hassan Chafi

Just-in-time (JIT) compilation of running programs provides more optimization opportunities than offline compilation. Modern JIT compilers, such as those in virtual machines like Oracle's HotSpot for Java or Google's V8 for JavaScript, rely on dynamic prof ...

Accelerating parser combinators with macros

Manohar Jonnalagedda, Eric Beguet

Parser combinators provide an elegant way of writing parsers: parser implementations closely follow the structure of the underlying grammar, while accommodating interleaved host language code for data processing. However, the host language features used fo ...

Spiral in Scala: Towards the Systematic Construction of Generators for Performance Libraries

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Alen Stojanov

Program generators for high performance libraries are an appealing solution to the recurring problem of porting and optimizing code with every new processor generation, but only few such generators exist to date. This is due to not only the difficulty of t ...

Forge: Generating a High Performance DSL Implementation from a Declarative Specification

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf

Domain-specific languages provide a promising path to automatically compile high-level code to parallel, heterogeneous, and distributed hardware. However, in practice high performance DSLs still require considerable software expertise to develop and force ...

Scala-Virtualized: Linguistic Reuse for Deep Embeddings

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Philipp Haller, Nada Amin

Scala-Virtualized extends the Scala language to better support hosting embedded DSLs. Scala is an expressive language that provides a flexible syntax, type-level computation using implicits, and other features that facilitate the development of em- bedded ...

Quasiquotes for Scala

Martin Odersky, Eugene Burmako, Denys Shabalin

We introduce quasiquotes for the Scala programming language, which solve the problem of manual tree construction and deconstruction. Included case studies show that quasiquotes indeed are easier to work with than existing tools for tree construction. When ...
