  • A Compiler Front-End for the WOOL Parallelization Library
    A compiler front-end for the WOOL Parallelization library GEORGIOS VARISTEAS KTH Information and Communication Technology Master of Science Thesis Stockholm, Sweden 2010 TRITA-ICT-EX-2010:291 Royal Institute of Technology A compiler front-end for the WOOL Parallelization library Georgios Varisteas yorgos(@)kth.se 15 October, 2010 A master thesis project conducted at Examiner: Mats Brorsson Supervisor: Karl-Filip Faxén Abstract WOOL is a C parallelization library developed at SICS by Karl-Filip Faxén. It provides the tools for develop- ing fine grained independent task based parallel applications. This library is distinguished from other similar projects by being really fast and light; it manages to spawn and synchronize tasks in under 20 cycles. However, all software development frameworks which expose radically new functionality to a programming language, gain a lot by having a compiler to encapsulate and implement them. WOOL does not differ from this category. This project is about the development of a source-to-source compiler for the WOOL parallelization library, supporting an extension of the C language with new syntax that implements the WOOL API, transform- ing it and eventually outputting GNU C code. Additionally, this compiler is augmented with a wrapper script that performs compilation to machine code by using GCC. This script is configurable and fully automatic. The main advantage gained from this project is to satisfy the need for less overhead in software development with WOOL. The simplified syntax results in faster and more economical code writing while being less error- prone. Moreover, this compiler enables the future addition of many more features not applicable with the current state of WOOL as a library.

For a long time now the industry has been moving from Unix workstations to Windows/Intel desktop machines. The wintel price/performance has been fantastic, the IT guys are happier, and all of that productivity software that you spend so much time with runs in the same spot. We have been happy with a stable and known environment. However, accepting the fact that unless you work for a big company that can buy some Unix servers, you just don’t have an easy way to get some extra horsepower other then getting a new box. Then along comes this Finnish guy that may or may not have been named after Lucy’s little brother. With not much of a life and a very large brain, he popped out the majority of a complete and free version of Unix that anyone can use, breaking the stranglehold of (expensive) proprietary Unix OS’s that ran on (expensive) proprietary hardware.

  • Implementation of C Library for Constructing Packrat Parser with Statically Allocated Memory
    Journal of Information Processing Vol.26 335–344 (Mar. 2018) [DOI: 10.2197/ipsjjip.26.335] Regular Paper Implementation of C Library for Constructing Packrat Parser with Statically Allocated Memory Yuta Sugimoto1,a) Atusi Maeda1 Received: July 23, 2017, Accepted: September 28, 2017 Abstract: Packrat parsing is a recursive descent parsing method with backtracking and memoization. Parsers based on this method require no separate lexical analyzers, and backtracking enables those parsers to handle a wide range of complex syntactic constructs. Memoization is used to prevent exponential growth of running time, resulting in linear time complexity at th cost of linear space consumption. In this study, we propose CPEG – a library that can be used to write parsers using Packrat parsing in C language. This library enables programmers to describe syntactic rules in an internal domain-specific language (DSL) which, unlike parser combinators, does not require runtime data structures to represent syntax. Syntax rules are just expressed by plain C macros. The runtime routine does not dynamically allocate memory regions for memoization. Instead, statically allocated arrays are used as memoization cache tables. Therefore, programmers can implement practical parsers with CPEG, which does not depend on any specific memory management features, requiring fixed-sized memory (except for input string). To enhance usability, a translator to CPEG from an external DSL is provided, as well as a tuning mechanism to control memoization parameters. Pars- ing time compared to other systems when parsing JavaScript Object Notation and Java source files are given. The experimental results indicate that the performance of CPEG is competitive with other libraries.
