A practical flow-sensitive and context-sensitive C and C++ memory leak detector
This paper presents a static analysis tool that can automatically find memory leaks and deletions of dangling pointers in large C and C++ applications. We have developed a type s...

Taming the IXP network processor
We compile Nova, a new language designed for writing network processing applications, using a back end based on integer-linear programming (ILP) for register allocation, optimal b...

A type and effect system for atomicity
Ensuring the correctness of multithreaded programs is difficult, due to the potential for unexpected and nondeterministic interactions between threads. Previous work addressed th...

Optimizing indirect branch prediction accuracy in virtual machine interpreters
Interpreters designed for efficiency execute a huge number of indirect branches and can spend more than half of the execution time in indirect branch mispredictions. Branch target...

Predicting whole-program locality through reuse distance analysis
Profiling can accurately analyze program behavior for select data inputs. We show that profiling can also predict program locality for inputs other than profiled ones. Here loc...

CCured in the real world
CCured is a program transformation system that adds memory safety guarantees to C programs by verifying statically that memory errors cannot occur and by inserting run-time checks...

A provably sound TAL for back-end optimization
Typed assembly languages provide a way to generate machinecheckable safety proofs for machine-language programs. But the soundness proofs of most existing typed assembly languages...
