Verified Inlining and Specialisation for PureCake
Abstract
Inlining is a crucial optimisation for functional languages. We implemented and verified function inlining and loop specialisation for PureCake, a verified compiler for a Haskell-like, purely functional, lazy language. A novel part of our formalisation justifies inlining by pushing and pulling let bindings. The work was mechanised in HOL4.
