Loopy - A Structurizer for generating structured control flow code. compiler structurizer unstructured control flow structured control flow cfg January 20, 2016 . . A structurizer is used when the IR is unstructured but the code to be generated needs to be structured. A structured control flow represents idioms which are generally present in higher-level languages such as if-else, for-loop, while-loop, do-while etc.
Dominator Trees - Implementation and Why are they needed? compiler dominator trees post dominator tree January 17, 2016 . . A Dominator Tree is a CFG analysis which is used in compilers to aid in other optimizations. This is useful when doing optimizations like code-hoisting or code sinking etc.
Constant Propagation & Folding. compiler constant propagation constant folding January 17, 2016 . . Constant propagation and folding are generic optimizations which can greatly simplify the intermediate representation. It is the basis for other optimizations like loop unrolling, loop simplification, function inlining etc.
