I did work there. BLISS was originally an academic project (at Carnegie-Mellon) whose point of departure was this. Suppose a compiler to emit machine code comparable, for size and speed, with the best hand-tuned assembler: then what kind of high-level language could be the input to that compiler? What features must it [not] have? The findings were documented in a book, The Design of an Optimizing Compiler by William Wulf et al., published 1971. |
