Tree SSA - A New High-Level Optimization Framework for the GNU Compiler Collection
Diego Novillo · 2003
In this paper we introduce Tree SSA, a new optimization framework for the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) based on the Static Single Assignment form. The paper provides a brief historical perspective on GCC’s development, the rationale behind the new framework and its potential applications. We will also discuss some of the analyses and optimizations that are being designed and implemented on top of Tree SSA.
