If what you mean is characteristics of programs written in
particular languages, one reference is:


@article{SheLi:90,
author = {Zhiyu Shen and Zhiyuan Li and Pen-Chung Yew},
title = {An Empirical Study of {FORTRAN} Programs for Parallelizing
Compilers},
journal = {IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems},
month = {July},
year = {1990},
volume = {1},
number = {3},
pages = {356--364}
}
