T3B: Transformation Languages
- Trieste is a dedicated DSL for expressing tree-rewriting passes used in compilation and analysis pipelines.
T4C: Vertical Transformation
- Its primary application is structuring compiler passes that translate and lower ASTs across intermediate forms.
T5F: Performance
- In-place rewriting is motivated by reducing overhead compared to copying-based transformation styles.
T1D: Composition
- The design emphasises composing sequences of rewrite passes in a modular way.
