Abstract

We propose a new algorithm for fusion transformation that allows both stacks and accumulating parameters. The new algorithm can fuse programs that cannot be handled by existing fusion techniques, eg, XML transformations. The algorithm is formulated in a modular, type-directed style where the transformation process is comprised of several transformation steps that change types but preserve the observational behavior of programs. We identify a class of functions to which our new fusion method successfully applies and show that a closure property holds for that class.
