These traces are then analyzed and optimized, and finally specialized machine code is generated. Up to now, TJITs employed standard compiler construction algorithms to analyze and optimize traces. We propose to leverage automated theorem provers to optimize traces at run time.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/the-unthinkable-automated-theorem-provers-for-tracing-just-in-time-compilers/}, edition = {FIT at PLDI'10}, note = {FIT at PLDI'10}, }
