CompCert

Can you trust your compiler? — With CompCert, you can!

Recording of a free VectorCAST webinar, held on 8 June 2021 in co-operation with Vector.

  • Terminology: Compiler validation vs. compiler verification
  • Introduction to formal compiler verification
  • Benefits of formally verified compilation
  • Experimental evaluation of CompCert performance
  • Tool qualification strategy for industry norms such as ISO 26262

ACM Software System Award 2021

Xavier Leroy, Sandrine Blazy, Zaynah Dargaye, Jacques-Henri Jourdan, Michael Schmidt, Bernhard Schommer, and Jean-Baptiste Tristan are the recipients of the ACM Software System Award for the development of CompCert, the first practically useful optimizing compiler targeting multiple commercial architectures that has a complete, mechanically checked proof of its correctness.
