Resolving circularity in attribute grammars with applications to data flow analysis (preliminary version)
1989
Proceedings of the 16th ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT symposium on Principles of programming languages - POPL '89
Circular attribute grammars appear in many data flow analysis problems. ...
Therefore, the translation. may be used in conjunction with any evaluator generator to automate the development of efficient data flow analysis algorithms. ...

Circular attribute grammars with remote attribute references and their evaluators
2004
New generation computing
This is due to two problems which few previous researches could deal with simultaneously, i.e., references of attribute values on distant nodes and circularity in attribute dependency. ...
This paper proposes circular remote attribute grammars (CRAGs), an extension of AGs which allows (1) direct relations between two distant attribute instances through pointers referring to other nodes in ...
Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank John Tang Boyland and the anonymous referees for their comments on an earlier draft. * 11 Boyland's circular and remote AGs have more expressive power in ...

A pure embedding of attribute grammars
2013
Science of Computer Programming
The paper concludes with a discussion of our approach in the context of other attribute grammar systems in Section 7 and concluding remarks in Section 8. ...
First, in Section 2 we present Kiama's basic attribute grammar facilities, their implementation as functions with access to generic structural properties of the tree that is being attributed, and attribute ...
We use the alternative attribute access notation a(n) for the liveness sets to emphasise the correspondence with the data flow equations. ...

Lecture Notes in Computer Science
It overcomes the difficulty of circularities in the attribute dependency which often appear in data-flow equations of optimizers. ...
It is based on finitely recursive attribute grammars, a class of attribute grammars which allow circularities in attribute dependency [Farrow 86]. ...
Acknowledgments The author wishes to thank the members of the programming language laboratory for assistance in the development of Pie and Jun, especially H. Ishizuka, M. Sawatani, J. ...

OPTRAN - A language/system for the specification of program transformations: System overview and experiences
[chapter]
1989
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The transformation of AAST's is a powerful method to describe problems in compiler writing such as machine-independent optimisations, language-based editors, and source-to-source translations. ...
Programs are represented by attributed abstract syntax trees (AAST). ...
In addition, this attribute is an argument of some predicates. As stated in [Wi79a] , non-circular attribute grammars compute good approximations to the exact data flow information. ...

Implementing Circularity Using Partial Evaluation
[chapter]
2001
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Such a circular reference can be naturally expressed in a lazy functional language or in an attribute grammar. ...
In this paper, we consider circular references in the context of an imperative C-like language, by extending the language with a new construct, persistent variables. ...
The binding-time analysis used by data specialization is significantly less informative than the analysis used in the implementation of attribute grammars. ...

Extensible intraprocedural flow analysis at the abstract syntax tree level
2013
Science of Computer Programming
Our approach is declarative, making use of reference attribute grammars augmented with circular attributes and collection attributes. ...
This results in concise executable specifications of the analyses, allowing extensions both to the language and with further source code analyses. ...
Acknowledgements We are very grateful to Max Schäfer for refactorings and improvements to the Control Flow Graph module. ...

The JastAdd system — modular extensible compiler construction
2007
Science of Computer Programming
Java has been extended with the Rewritable Circular Reference Attributed Grammars formalism that supports modularization and extensibility through several synergistic mechanisms. ...
Object-orientation and static aspect-oriented programming are combined with declarative attributes and context-dependent rewrites to allow highly modular specifications. ...

Formalising and Verifying Reference Attribute Grammars in Coq
[chapter]
2009
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
As a small but typical application, we show how closure analysis for the untyped lambda calculus can easily be implemented and proved correct with respect to an operational semantics. ...
We present a general method for formalising reference attribute grammars in the theorem prover Coq. ...
In line with classical work on circular attribute grammars [5, 8] , we require all possibly circular attributes to be monotonic functions whose range is partially ordered; the actual attribute value is ...

Reusing Static Analysis across Different Domain-Specific Languages using Reference Attribute Grammars
2020
The Art, Science, and Engineering of Programming
To illustrate reusability, we implemented two analyses with two addressed languages each: a cycle detection analysis used in a small state machine DSL and for detecting circular dependencies in Java types ...
Thus, to make static analysis reusable again, we employ relational Reference Attribute Grammars (RAGs) by creating such a mapping to a domain-independent overlay structure using higher-order attributes ...
