MICRO-FORM FORMATS AND INTERPRETERS IN THE PILER SYSTEM.

Abstract

The PILER System is an automatic computer program translator which translates a source machine language program to a target machine language program. It performs this function by de-compiling a source machine-language program and re-compiling the subject program on the target computer. The three phases of the de-compiling process (PILER) are (I) Interpretation of the subject program commands; (II) Analysis of subject program for function and purpose and data analysis; and (III) Expression of subject program in a compiler language. Each phase of the PILER is discrete and self-contained. Thus, any number of Phase I interpreters can be produced which will allow any computer to be considered the source computer. Any number of Phase III translators can be produced which will allow any computer to be considered the target computer, through any compiler medium. The report describes the Phase I interpreters and defines the Microform format the interpreters use to communicate with the Analyzer. (Author)
