French Compiler Community

In 2010, Laure Gonnord and Fabrice Rastello created the french community of compilation, which had no organized venue in the past. All groups with activities related to compilation were contacted and the first “compilation day” was organized in Lyon.This effort has been quickly a success: the community (http://compilfr.ens-lyon.fr/ ) is now well identified and 3-days workshops now occur at least once a year (the 10th event has been organized in Sep. 2015). The community is animated by Laure Gonnord and Fabrice Rastello since 2010, and now also by Florian Brandner (ex-Compsys too). Alain Darte, Alexandre Isoard, and Tomofumi Yuki participated to the 10th edition, with talks on “Static Analysis of OpenStream Programs”, “Liveness Analysis in the Polyhedral Model”, and “PolyApps: Case Study of Polyhedral Compilers using Real Applications” respectively.

Recognized as a sub-group of the CNRS GDR GPL (Software Engineering and Programming), the community is also in charge, since 2014, of organizing one day of the research school “Ecole des jeunes chercheurs en Algorithmique et Programmation” (EJCP). Tomofumi Yuki, in this context, gave a one-day lecture at the 2015 edition.

Collaboration with Parkas group, in Paris

Alain Darte and Paul Feautrier have regular meetings with Albert Cohen, from the Parkas team at ENS Paris. The current discussions are mostly related to the analysis and compilation of the OpenStream language developed by Parkas, a research topic that started though the ManycoreLabs project (see Section  8.1 ). The results of Sections  7.10 and  7.11 are related to this collaboration.

Collaboration with Cairn group, in Rennes

Tomofumi Yuki continues to work with the Cairn group through regular meetings and occasional visits. The topic of the collaboration is in applying compiler techniques for hardware design using high-level synthesis. Section  7.14 presents the results through this collaboration.

Collaboration with Camus group, in Strasbourg

Paul Feautrier and Tomofumi Yuki have an ongoing cooperation with Alain Ketterlin and Eric Violard (Camus group, Strasbourg) on several subjects connected to the analysis and transformations of X10 programs (see Section  7.8 ).
