Detecting phases in parallel applications on shared memory architectures
Most programs are repetitive, where similar behavior can be seen at different execution times. Algorithms have been proposed that automatically group similar portions of a program...

ARCHER: using symbolic, path-sensitive analysis to detect memory access errors
Memory corruption errors lead to non-deterministic, elusive crashes. This paper describes ARCHER (ARray CHeckER) a static, effective memory access checker. ARCHER uses path-sensit...

Testing static analysis tools using exploitable buffer overflows from open source code
Five modern static analysis tools (ARCHER, BOON, PolySpace C Verifier, Splint, and UNO) were evaluated using source code examples containing 14 exploitable buffer overflow vulnera...

Region Based Structure Layout Optimization by Selective Data Copying
As the gap between processor and memory continues to grow, memory performance becomes a key performance bottleneck for many applications. Compilers therefore increasingly seek to m...

Speculative Register Promotion Using Advanced Load Address Table (ALAT)
The pervasive use of pointers with complicated patterns in C programs often constrains compiler alias analysis to yield conservative register allocation and promotion. Speculative...
