Hi I would like to pose several questions on Interprocedural Analysis: (1) How much further speed/space optimizations could be performed by having IA? (2) The difficulty of doing IA and corresponding optimizations? (2) IA's implication on data-flow data structures, and other data structures? (3) Is IA incorporated by many/most compilers for both Imperative and LISP-like languages? I would guess IA is a necessity for LISP-like language compilers, and optional for Imperative ones. What do you say? Please respond by email. Thanks. Napi -- Send compilers articles to compilers@iecc.cambridge.ma.us or {ima | spdcc | world}!iecc!compilers. Meta-mail to compilers-request.
