Greetings. Our group at MIT is very interested in accumulating information on existing systems for compiler back-end generation from (serial or parallel) intermediate languages or IL specifications. Essentially, we are looking for software to help us quickly re-target an experimental compiler for a variety of architectures. Thus, we are interested in tools such as GNU RTL that would permit us to define an abstract machine description that would (at least partially) automate the construction of a machine-specific back-end. If you know of any systems that meet this description, or can provide pointers into relevant literature, we would like to hear from you. Please send e-mail to carl@meson.lcs.mit.edu; I will post a follow-up summary of any information that I receive. Thanks, Carl Waldspurger MIT LCS Parallel Software Group carl@meson.lcs.mit.edu
