A Survey of Optimization Techniques in Compilers.

摘要

A compendium of compilation processes and compiler organization relating to program optimization is presented, where evaluations of underlying cost/benefit relationships is the focus for this study. To obtain this goal a compiler model to relate the optimization algorithms to the compilation process is introduced. From this a discussion of general optimization philosophy leading to descriptions, analyses, and reviews of the most significant optimization algorithms is made; the benefits of these algorithms are considered, and recommendations for future measurements are proposed.
