Iburg

A program by Christopher W. Fraser [email protected],

David R. Hanson [email protected] and Todd A. Proebsting

[email protected] that generates a fast tree parser.

Iburg is compatible with Burg. Both programs accept a

cost-augmented tree grammar and emit a C program that

discovers an optimal parse of trees in the language described

by the grammar. They have been used to construct fast optimal

instruction selectors for use in code generation. Burg uses

BURS. Iburg's matchers do dynamic programming at compile

time.
