Research compilers [ ]
Research compilers are mostly not robust or complete enough to handle real, large applications. They are used mostly for fast prototyping new language features and new optimizations in research areas.
Open64 : A popular research compiler. Open64 merges the open source changes from the PathScale compiler mentioned.
ROSE : an open source compiler framework to generate source-to-source analyzers and translators for C/C++ and Fortran, developed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
MILEPOST GCC : interactive plugin-based open-source research compiler that combines the strength of GCC and the flexibility of the common Interactive Compilation Interface that transforms production compilers into interactive research toolsets.
Interactive Compilation Interface - a plugin system with high-level API to transform production-quality compilers such as GCC into powerful and stable research infrastructure while avoiding developing new research compilers from scratch
Phoenix optimization and analysis framework by Microsoft
Edison Design Group : provides production-quality front end compilers for C, C++, and Java (a number of the compilers listed on this page use front end source code from Edison Design Group [71] ). Additionally, Edison Design Group makes their proprietary software available for research uses.[72]
