Abstract

The VeriF-OPT project seeks to provide a framework for stating and reasoning about compiler optimizations and transformations on parallel programs in the presence of relaxed memory models. The core of the framework is a domain-specific language for specifying compiler optimizations: PTRANS, in which program transformations are expressed as rewrites on control flow graphs with temporal logic side conditions. This document describes the syntax of PTRANS and its two semantics: the abstract semantics used to verify specifications, and the executable semantics used to prototype specifications.
