Presentation Transcript

  1. Advanced Compiler Design CSE 231 Instructor: Sorin Lerner

  2. if (…) { x := …; } else { y := …; } …; Compiler Exec Optimizer Parser Code Gen Let’s look at a compiler Compiler

  3. Compiler Compiler Parser Parser Code Gen Code Gen Let’s look at a compiler Optimizer

  4. Advanced Optimizer Design CSE 231 Instructor: Sorin Lerner

  5. Compiler Parser Code Gen What does an optimizer do? Optimizer • Compute information about a program • Use that information to perform program transformations (with the goal of improving some metric, e.g. performance)

  6. What do these tools have in common? • Bug finders • Program verifiers • Code refactoring tools • Garbage collectors • Runtime monitoring system • And… optimizers

  7. What do these tools have in common? • Bug finders • Program verifiers • Code refactoring tools • Garbage collectors • Runtime monitoring system • And… optimizers They all analyze and transform programs We will learn about the techniques underlying all these tools

  8. Program Analyses, Transformations,and Applications CSE 231 Instructor: Sorin Lerner

  9. Course goals • Understand basic techniques • cornerstone of a variety of program analysis tools • useful no matter what your future path • Get a feel for compiler research/implementation • useful if you don’t have a research area picked • also useful if you have a research area picked

  10. Course topics • Representing programs • Analyzing and transforming programs • Applications of these techniques
