Modern compilers integrate recent advances in compiler construction, intermediate representations, algorithms and programming language front-ends. Yet code generation for application-specific architectures benefits only marginally from this trend, as most of the effort is oriented towards popular general-purpose architectures. Historically, non-orthogonal architectures have relied on custom compiler technologies, some retargettable, but largely decoupled from the evolution of mainstream tool flows.
