Abstract

hcc is a portable optimizing compiler for ANSI C [8] [9] with code generators for the PowerPC and the MIMOS's RISC CPU. The PowerPC is a RISC processor developed jointly by IBM, Motorola, and Apple Computer among others in 1993, while the MIMOS's RISC CPU is an experimental 32-bit RISC processor. At the moment the compiler can be used to program PowerPC based computers including the PowerMacintoshes and the IBM RS6000 PowerPC based workstations.
