Lightweight Modular Staging and Embedded Compilers

Tiark Rompf

Programs expressed in a high-level programming language need to be translated to a low-level machine dialect for execution. This translation is usually accomplished by a compiler, which is able to translate any legal program to equivalent low-level code. B ...

StagedSAC: a case study in performance-oriented DSL development

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Vlad Ureche, Hassan Chafi

Domain-specific languages (DSLs) can bridge the gap between high-level programming and efficient execution. However, implementing compiler tool-chains for performance oriented DSLs requires significant effort. Recent research has produced methodologies and ...

Source-to-source architecture transformation for performance optimization in BIP

Joseph Sifakis

Behavior, Interaction, Priorities (BIP) is a component framework for constructing systems from a set of atomic components by using two kinds of composition operators: interactions and priorities. In this paper, we present a method that transforms the inter ...

Compiling Scala for Performance

Iulian Dragos

Scala is a new programming language bringing together object-oriented and functional programming. Its defining features are uniformity and extensibility. Scala offers great flexibility for programmers, allowing them to grow the language through libraries. ...

Jakstab: A Static Analysis Platform for Binaries

Johannes Kinder

For processing compiled code, model checkers require accurate model extraction from binaries. We present our fully configurable binary analysis platform Jakstab, which resolves indirect branches by multiple rounds of disassembly interleaved with dataflow a ...

Reflective Program Teneration with Patterns

James Richard Larus

Runtime reflection facilities, as present in Java and .NET, are powerful mechanisms for inspecting existing code and metadata, as well as generating new code and metadata on the fly. Such power does come at a high price though. The runtime reflection suppo ...

Metamodel-Aware Textual Concrete Syntax Specification

Frédéric Fondement

Metamodeling is raising more and more interest in the field of language engineering. While this approach is now well understood for the definition of abstract syntaxes, the formal definition of concrete syntaxes is still a challenge. Concrete syntaxes are ...

Optimization of semiconductor–metal hybrid structures for application in magnetic-field sensors and read heads

Dirk Grundler

Semiconductor–metal hybrid structures can exhibit a very large geometrical magnetoresistanceeffect, the so-called extraordinary magnetoresistance (EMR) effect. Using the finite element method, we study the EMR effect in rectangular semiconductor–metal hybr ...

Tail Call Elimination on the Java Virtual Machine

Martin Odersky, Michel Schinz

A problem that often has to be solved by compilers for functional languages targeting the Java Virtual Machine is the elimination of tail calls. This paper explains how we solved it in our Funnel compiler and presents some experimental results about the im ...
