programs for Linux, Windows, OS X, Unix and BSD.
Open64, supported by AMD on Linux.
XPL PL/I dialect (several systems)

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: one of the most popular research compilers today, many branches exist. Here is a list of research papers from the CGO 2009. 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.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_compilers#C_compilers 12/14
8/7/2018 List of compilers - Wikipedia
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[47]). Additionally, Edison Design Group makes their proprietary software available for research uses.[48]
