Subtopic: SSA for optimization up

Quote: static single assignment (SSA) is useful for optimization
Quote: OSR is a practical algorithm for operator strength reduction using SSA form; as good as ACK

Subtopic: type separation, check elimination up

Quote: SafeTSA assigns a separate register plane for every type; guarantees type separation without type and range checks [»ammeW6_2001]
Quote: ABCD-eliminate array bounds checks on demand; sparse SSA analysis; removes 45% of bounds checks [»bodiR6_2000]
Quote: implement field analysis with static, single-assignment (SSA) graph; analyze loads and stores without optimization or context-sensitive information [»ghemS6_2000]
Quote: analyze escape constraints with types and static single assignment (SSA); linear time and space

Subtopic: distinguished value up

Quote: SafeTSA uses SSA to distinguish unique values of a variable; uses phi-instructions and data flow instead of local variables [»ammeW6_2001]

Subtopic: memory safety up

Quote: compositional verification of memory safety in optimized code; encode low-level safety information via static single-assignment (SSA) proof variables [»menoVS1_2006]

Subtopic: referential integrity, pointer analysis up

Quote: SafeTSA guarantees referential integrity by construction; reference in terms of a basic block in the dominator tree [»ammeW6_2001]
Quote: extended SSA numbering for indirect pointer references; requires pointer analysis and side-effect analysis; easy to add [»labkC3_1998]

Subtopic: induction variable up

Quote: OSR identifies induction variables by a depth-first search of the strongly-connected components in the SSA-graph [»coopKD9_2001]

Subtopic: unassigned value up

Quote: a borrowed variable (a dynamic alias) is never stored in a field; owned elsewhere; may be used for computation or local variable, but it is never returned [»boylJ5_2001]

Subtopic: SSA algorithm up

Quote: efficiently compute the static single assignment (SSA) form and control dependency graph using dominance frontiers; result is usually linear in size [»cytrR10_1991]

Subtopic: flow of values up

Quote: treat control variables as a flow of values, one per clock tick; system of equations or dataflow network; each variable defined exactly once [»benvA1_2003]
Quote: Lustre extends the usual operators to operate pointwise on flows of values
Quote: a node in Lustre is a function of typed input flows; defined by a system of equations and local flows; exactly one definition for each output or local flow [»benvA1_2003]

Subtopic: balloon type up

Quote: a balloon type has only one static reference, the reference is external, and no external reference to an internal object [»almePS6_1997]
Quote: state variables can not store a reference to a pre-existing balloon object; variables and parameters can store references [»almePS6_1997]
Quote: state variables can only store references to newly created balloon objects; uses deep-copy [»almePS6_1997]
