The case for application specific compilers
Marcel Beemster · 2011
We believe it makes sense to develop compilers that are specific for particular application domains. In many areas of embedded computing, processor architectures are designed specifically to run a narrow band of application code very well. These architectures are unlike any the world has seen before and to program them is a challenge to say the least. CoSy's flexible compiler technology thrives in this area. By viewing the compiler as a means and not as a goal, it is possible to achieve spectacular results in a very short time-frame.
