Accurate Call Graph Extraction of Programs with Function Pointers Using Type Signatures
Software engineers need to understand programs in order to effectively maintain them. The call graph, which presents the calling relationships between functions, is a useful repre...

Hierarchical Pointer Analysis for Distributed Programs
We present a new pointer analysis for use in shared memory programs running on hierarchical parallel machines. The analysis is motivated by the partitioned global address space lan...

On the Complexity of Function Pointer May-Alias Analysis
This paper considers the complexity of interprocedural function pointer may-alias analysis, i.e., determining the set of functions that a function pointer (in a language such as C...

Effective Whole-Program Analysis in the Presence of Pointers
Understanding large software systems is difficult. Traditionally, automated tools are used to assist program understanding. However, the representations constructed by these tool...

Compositional Pointer and Escape Analysis for Java Programs
This paper presents a combined pointer and escape analysis algorithm for Java programs. The algorithm is based on the abstraction of points-to escape graphs, which characterize ho...
