  We have a matrix-oriented approach to loop transformations that uses
non-singular matrices to represent loop transformations. Non-singular
matrices generalize the unimodular approach (unimodular matrices are a
special case of non-singular matrices in which the determinant is 1 or
-1). The framework has been implemented in a loop transformation toolkit
called Lambda.


The Lambda transformation toolkit and related papers can be ftped from
both Cornell (this is a part of my Ph.D thesis from Cornell) and
University of Rochester. The addresses are:


cs.rochester.edu in pub/wei
ftp.cs.cornell.edu in pub/TyphoonCompiler


Lambda was designed to be integrated easily into other compilers. The
interface is quite simple. It has been used by other researchers in
their compilers.
