Starting from the intraprocedural basic case, this monograph focuses on interprocedural optimization. It emphasizes the analogies and essential differences between intraprocedural and interprocedural optimization, and offers cookbook style support for constructing the underlying algorithms. It is aimed at compiler constructors and researchers interested in the systematic transfer of intraprocedural optimizations to the interprocedural setting, as well as students seeking a gentle introduction to the field.
