Quiz 2 Information

The second quiz is schedule for Tuesday during class time.

Remember, it is open book/notes!

I have posted a practice exam and solutions on the web site. You can also look at last year's practice quiz, but be careful with problem 4, there are bugs in it.

I am going to give a quiz review during class on Monday (11am, normal room). I will answer any questions and go over the material (mostly dataflow analysis).

The material:
  • Assembly Language
  • Low-level intermediate representation (3-address code, etc.)
  • Translation from high-level representation to low-level (example, for-loop->assembly)
  • Control Flow Analysis and Basic Blocks
  • Intra-basic-block optimizations (value numbering, etc.)
  • Dataflow Analysis including transfer functions, confluence, Global CSE, copy-prop, dce, liveness, and the theoretical framework (lattices, transfer functions, etc.)
