Generating action compilers by partial evaluation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 November 2008
Abstract
Compiler generation based on Mosses' action semantics has been studied by Brown, Moura, and Watt, and also by the second author. The core of each of their systems is a handwritten action compiler, producing either C or machine code. We have obtained an action compiler in a much simpler way: by partial evaluation of an action interpreter. Even though our compiler produces Scheme code, the code runs as fast as that produced by the previous action compilers.
