An APL/370 compiler and some performance comparisons with APL interpreter and FORTRAN

The experimental APL/370 E-compiler compiles a subset of APL which is large enough for most scientific and engineering uses, directly into 370 assembly code. The compiler does not require variable declarations. The front-end employs extensive type-shape ...

ESEC/FSE 2019: Proceedings of the 2019 27th ACM Joint Meeting on European Software Engineering Conference and Symposium on the Foundations of Software Engineering

Compiler bugs are extremely harmful, but are notoriously difficult to debug because compiler bugs usually produce few debugging information. Given a bug-triggering test program for a compiler, hundreds of compiler files are usually involved during ...
