Publication: Two LLVM-related papers

Hi,

i’ve two papers that could be listed on the LLVM publication page. http://www.llvm.org/pubs/

The first paper describes an architecture description language and LLVM back-end generation out of an ADL. The second paper describes a cluster VLIW back-end for LLVM 2.9, just before this VLIW initiative started for LLVM.

Kind regards,

Timo Stripf

Hi Timo,

The first paper describes an architecture description language and
LLVM back-end generation out of an ADL. The second paper describes a
cluster VLIW back-end for LLVM 2.9, just before this VLIW initiative
started for LLVM.

Before I delve into the paper, a few questions:

- is your ADL langauge type safe, does it have a type system?
- do you generate directly TableGen and C++ from ADL?
- do you guarantee that the generated files will compile?

Best wishes,
Wojciech
