Abstract
In this talk, I will illustrate the promise of generative programming —writing expressive high-level programs that generate fast low-level code at runtime—by turning interpreters into compilers, and even collapsing towers of interpreters into one-pass compilers. Examples include regular expression matchers, program transformers, SQL engines, and conceptually infinite reflective towers of interpreters.
Series This talk is part of the Wednesday Seminars - Department of Computer Science and Technology series.
