The CerCo approach Sample Clauses

The CerCo approach. ‌ The complexity of a program only depends on its control-flow structure, and in particular on its cycles (procedures calls are just a special case of cycles). Proving that a compiler preserves complexity amounts to proving that it preserves (up to local modifications, like loop unrolling, in-line expansion, etc.) the control-flow structure of the source1 and, less trivially, that all other instructions are compiled into assembly code whose execution takes a bounded number of clock-cycles (i.e. with O(1) complexity). The interest of the project lies in the possibility to compute these costs directly on the target code then refer them back to the source program, allowing the possibility to make precise and trusted temporal assertions about execution from reasoning on the source code. As already mentioned, the main problem in the backward translation of costs from target code to source code is the fact that, apart from the overall control flow structure, all remaining structure of the input is usually irremediably lost during compilation: optimizations can move instructions around, change the order of jumps, and in general perform operations that are far from compositional w.r.t. the high level syntactic structure of the input program. So there is no hope to compute costs on an instruction-by-instruction basis of the source language, since the actual cost of the executable is not compositional in these figures. We have to find another, eventually coarser, level of granularity where the source can be sensibly annotated by target costs. We regard a C program as a collection of mutually defined procedures. The flow inside each procedure is determined by branching instructions like if-then-else; “while” loops can be regarded as a special kind of tail recursive procedures. The resulting flow can thus be represented as a directed acyclic graph (DAG). We call a path of the directed acyclic graph an execution path. void quicksort(int t[], int l, int r) { if (l < r) { int v = t[l]; int m = l; int i = l + 1; while (i <= r) { if (t[i] < v) { m++; swap(t, i, m); } i++; swap(t, l, m); quicksort(t, l, m - 1); quicksort(t, m + 1, r); }
