| Lepper, M; Trancón y Widemann, B: Solving the TTC 2011 Compiler Optimization Task with meta tools, Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 74, 70-115 (2011), doi:10.4204/EPTCS.74.9 | |
| Abstract: The authors’ meta tools are a collection of tools for generic programming. This includes generating Java sources from mathematically well-founded specifications, as well as the creation of strictly typed document object models for XML encoded texts. In this context, almost every computer-internal structure is treated as a “model”, and every computation is a kind of model transformation. This concept differs ignificantly from “classical model transformation” executed by specialized tools and languages. Therefore it seemed promising to the organizers of the transformation Tool Contest 2011 in Zu¨ rich, as well as to the authors, to apply meta tools to one of the challenges, namely to the “compiler optimization task”. This is a report on the resulting experiences. |
