Summary of OOP Interprocedural Analysis references

Hi folks,
  A couple of months back I posted the following message. In this post, I am
  summarizing the responses I got for the original message.
  Hope this is helpful. Thanks to everyone who responded.

Check out the bibliography in


    http://www-csag.cs.uiuc.edu/papers/ifa-submit.ps


This is an expanded version of a paper in OOPSLA'94 which describes
an iterative context-sensitive flow analysis for object-oriented
programs.


other papers in the same directory give performance results
on standard benchmarks for a compiler using this analysis
and a set of related optimizations.

Try papers on "Self" from Stanford. They've done a lot of interprocedural
analysis to make their delegation based language nearly as fast as C
(better than C++!)

Hi,


you probably are aware of the work done by Craig Chambers and his
gang at the University of Washington, but if not look at:

You can get our paper on the topic from:
http://www.cs.umass.edu/~diwan/


You can follow the references from that paper.

Professor Andrew Chien of UIUC is working in this area... check his
Web page (which should be accessible by working down through
"http://www.cs.uiuc.edu").


Hope this helps,

Also I found the following paper to be useful


An Extensible Program Representation for Object-Oriented Software,
Brian A. Malloy, J.D.McGregor, A. Krishnaswamy and M.MediKonda,
SigPlan Notices, December 1994, Vol. 29, No. 12, pp. 38-47.
