Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new variant of SSA called σ-SSA and discuss its construction through symbolic interpretation of programs. By relaxing a condition of SSA form and without violating the fundamental property of static single assignment representation, σ-SSA form results in fewer join functions than the minimal SSA form.

A more detailed report can be found in [6].
