Description |
This workspace is a forum for the exchange of ideas and for
discussions on practical tools and methods relating to linear
algebraic techniques for compilation in context of Embedded System
design. The initiative for this discussion form has its roots in the
CASES'99
workshop that was held in Washington, October 1-3 1999. Therefore
this workspace is named after the conference.
During the workshop it became clear that there are a few tools, based
on linear algebraic techniques, used heavily by a selective group of
people active in embedded system design. The tools used are for example
PIP and Omega; two tools used to solve integer linear programming. This
workspace should facilitate the exchange of experience
with such tools.
In general the workshape should help in
- Share experience with various tools in use/bugs/work-arounds.
- Help in locating the latest versions of the tools.
- Help in locating various derived versions of the tools.
- Formulating a wish list for further research.
- Help new people in the domain of Compiler and Architecture design to find relevant tools.
Note: It is our itension to find only links to work that is of direct interest to people
that are member of this site. Therefore, we are not going to generate a list with all
possible work done on linear algebra and Compiler and Architecture support.
Tools The tools we are currently interested in (but if
you have additions, please contact Bart Kienhuis) entails the
following list:
- PIP Parametric Integer Programming.
- Omega
Frameworks and Algorithms for the Analysis and Transformation of
Scientific Programs.
- Polylib A library of polyhedral functions.
