Topic: Compiler (computing)



  
 Compiler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A compiler is a computer program that translates a series of statements written in one computer language (called the source code) into a resulting output in another computer language (often called the object or target language).
This 'multipass' method of compiling was useful in the early days of computing due to the small main memories of host computers relative to the source code and data.
Compiler analysis - This is the process to gather program information from the intermediate representation of the input source files.

 * Compile - (Computing): Definition
A computer program which reads a computer program in a higher level (see ordinality) language, usually in the one a human programmer uses to state his problem algorithmically,...
compile -- To have a computer translate code written in a computer language into an executable form.
Compiler - A compiler translates a computer program from one language into another, catching any errors in syntax along the way.Most commonly, you translate some high level language, such as C++ or COBOL, into optimized machine language...

 Interpreter (computing)
This is in contrast to a compiler which does not execute its input program (the source code) but translates it into executable machine code (also called object code) which is output to a file for later execution.
For example Emacs Lisp is compiled to bytecode which is a highly compressed and optimised representation of the Lisp source but is not machine code (and therefore not tied to any particular hardware).
An interpreter is a computer program that executes other programs.

 Medical Administration Computing Plan
As long as a user's computing environment is dependent on a specific computer, user-centric computing cannot be achieved.
Computing Infrastructure - Develop a computing infrastructure that keeps pace with technology, extends the life-cycle of the computing equipment, reduces individual computing costs and enhances the support of the computing environment.
Set up users so that their login specifies the computing environment they use instead of their environment being specified by type of computer they log on from.

 Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bytecode is not the machine code for any particular computer, and may be portable among computer architectures.
Dynamic translation was pioneered by the commercial Smalltalk implementation currently known as VisualWorks, in the early 1980s.
The bytecode is then interpreted, or run on a virtual machine.

 Transit Note #93 Toward 21st Century Computing: Transit Perspective
Interaction with the computer should be a task where the machine learns to understand what the user wants rather than a task of teaching the user what the machine wants.
As computing progresses into the 21st century, we seek better performance and lower cost as we always have, but we also seek better integration of computing systems with each other, with their users, and with organizations and society at large.
At the same time, we believe computation can be described much more easily and naturally, placing a lower burden on the humans interacting with computers and dramatically increasing the efficiency of those ``programming'' computer systems.

 Chapter 2: Advanced HLA Programming
During compilation, HLA replaces each of these compile-time functions with a constant that is the result of computing the compile-time function's result.
Furthermore, HLA automatically computes the row-major index into a constant array for you, you do not have to use array.index or manually compute the index yourself.
This means that high level compilers are theoretically capable of producing better code than a high level assembler because the high level language compiler will attempt to optimize the code it produces whereas no high level assembler does that (today, anyway).

 Energy Citations Database (ECD) - Energy and Energy-Related Bibliographic Citations
The numerical methods employed in the solution of many scientific computing problems require the computation of the gradient of a function f: R{sup n} {yields} R. ADIFOR is a source translator that, given a collection of subroutines to compute f, generates Fortran 77 code for computing the derivative of this function.
Using the so-called torsion problem from the MINPACK-2 test collection as an example, this paper explores two issues in automatic differentiation: the efficient computation of derivatives for partial separable functions and the use of the compile-time reverse mode for the generation of derivatives.
We show that orders of magnitudes of improvement are possible when exploiting partial separability and maximizing use of the reverse mode.

 Distributed Computing - Active Projects - Mathematics
As of January 11, 2005, the project computed over 1 trillion verified zeros, collecting over 20 TB of accurate data about the distribution of the zeros, and generated many heuristics about the Riemann Hypothesis which will be published and which may be able to prove the hypothesis.
This site doesn't appear to be organized as an official distributed computing project and doesn't have any precompiled client software or explicit instructions for participating, so it is probably best suited for people who understand the Mathematical principles behind the project and how to compile source code.
This theoretical computer science problem has been in existence since 1946.

Often this is done by the compiler, but under some conditions a programmer, knows better than an optimizer and can do experiments to find specific conditions where unrolling would work better.
Macros/Template Meta-Programming provide very clunky methods of computing compile-time expressions.
