Demand-driven alias analysis for C
This paper presents a demand-driven, flow-insensitive analysis algorithm for answering may-alias queries. We formulate the computation of alias queries as a CFL-reachability probl...

The Limits of Alias Analysis for Scalar Optimizations
In theory, increasing alias analysis precision should improve compiler optimizations on C programs. This paper compares alias analysis algorithms on scalar optimizations, including...

SAFECode: enforcing alias analysis for weakly typed languages
Static analysis of programs in weakly typed languages such as C and C++ is generally not sound because of possible memory errors due to dangling pointer references, uninitialized ...

Tracking pointers with path and context sensitivity for bug detection in C programs
This paper proposes a pointer alias analysis for automatic error detection. State-of-the-art pointer alias analyses are either too slow or too imprecise for finding errors in real...
