Re: Analysis and optimization frameworks related work?

Try my IR'95 paper or any of the VDG papers for a different kind of
framework. I do things completely sparse, no bitvectors please.




          o Multiple analyses & transformations can easily be combined

      our framework makes combining such optimizations easy to do in

Wow! I always wondered if this sank into the deep, or if
somebody read it.
