You could try to look for terms 'program understanding' and 'plan
recognition' for works who are concerned with identifying certain code
patterns. For example:


@book{woods97constraint,
    author = " S. G. Woods and A. E. Quilici and Q. Yang",
    title = "Constraint-Based Design Recovery for Software Reengineering:
Theory and Experiments",
    publisher="Kluwer Academic Publishers",
    address = "Norwell, MA, USA",
    pages = 188,
    year = 1997,
    isbn = "0-7923-8067-3",
}


On the optimization part, the best I've managed to find is related to
the Gospel language, e.g.


@article{ whitfield97approach,
        author = "D. L. Whitfield and M. L. Soffa",
        title = "An approach for exploring code improving transformations",
        journal = "ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems",
        volume = "19",
        number = "6",
        pages = "1053--1084",
        year = "1997",
        url = "citeseer.nj.nec.com/whitfield97approach.html"
}


I would certainly be interested if there were any later efforts on areas
related to these.
