C/C++ compilers

Pascal Compliers

Open source compilers

Production quality, open source compilers.

Research compilers

Research compilers are mostly not robust or complete enough to handle real, large applications. They are used mostly for fast prototyping new language features and new optimizations in research areas.

• Open64: one of the most popular research compilers today, many branches exist. One is the Open Research Compiler (ORC) for Itanium processors. (The PathScale compiler mentioned above is based on Open64.)
  • http://upc.lbl.gov/ One of the branches of the Open64 compiler.
• SUIF: inactive since 2001
  • MACHINE SUIF a branch focusing on machine-specific analyses and optimizations
• MILEPOST GCC: machine learning based self-tuning research compiler that reuses collective optimization knowledge among different programs and architectures
• ROSE compiler: an open source compiler framework to generate source-to-source analyzers and translators, developed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
• Polaris compiler for Fortran
  • Cetus for C/C++, successor of Polaris compiler
• The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
• OpenIMPACT Compiler
• Phoenix optimization and analysis framework by Microsoft
• Very Portable Optimizer (VPO) from the University of Virginia
• COINS compiler infrastructure
• Trimaran for research in instruction-level parallelism
• Parafrase-2 Inactive. It is a source-to-source vectorizing/parallelizing compiler, with Fortran and C front-ends.
  • The PARADIGM compiler. Derived from Parafrase-2, it is a source-to-source research compiler for distributed-memory multicomputers for Fortran 77 and HPF.
• MLton standard ML compiler (SML compiler)
• Jikes Rsearch Virtual machine(RVM): a research compiler for JAVA
• Soot: a Java Optimization framework
• The Scale compiler
• HotpathVM: a Java virtual machine using a trace-based just-in-time compiler
• libFirm a completely graph based SSA intermediate representation for compilers
