Abstract

In this paper we examine alternative approaches towards the traditional optimisation technique of peepholing. Three simple methods of generating quality code are given. The first method improves poor juxtapositions while generating code, the second is an alternative usage of a solution to the knapsack problem. A third hybrid algorithm combines the strong points of both these solutions, and is presented as an alternative to conventional peepholing.
