The basis for TWIG is described in


Efficient Tree Pattern Matching:
an Aid to Code Generation
A. Aho and M. Ganapathi
POPL 12, 1985


The TWIG reference manual (I've never seen this one) is


Twig reference maual
S. Tjiang
AT&T Bell Labs, internal memorandum
January 1986


An interesting application is


Anatomy of a Hardware Compiler
K. Keutzer and W. Wolf
Sigplan 88 Conference on Programming Language
Design and Implementation
in Sigplan Notices, July 1988


BEG is described in


BEG - A generator for efficient back ends
H. Emmelmann, F. Schr\:oer, and R. Landwehr
Sigplan 89 Conference on Programming Language Design &c.
Sigplan Notices, July 1989
