Hi netters,


I am doing aliasing analysis on language C and Fortran 90 as part of my
M.E thesis. Most of the aliasing analysis I have seen does not take care
of pointers to array locations.


For example, Aliasing output doesn't distinguish between the below
statements.


int *a,b[10];


a = &b[0];
a = &b[5];


If the range of arrays can be properly incorporated in the
aliasing analysis then probably this analysis can be done. Has anybody
done any work in this regard?


Thanx in advance.
