+\chapter{List of \PIPS transformations}
+
+\section{Memory allocation alteration}
+
+\begin{description}
+
+\item[scalar renaming]{is the process of renaming scalar variables to
+ suppress false data dependencies.}
+
+\item[privatization]{is the process of detecting variables that are
+ private to a loop body, i.e.\ written first, then read.}
+
+\end{description}
+
+
+\section{Loop transformations}
+
+\begin{description}
+
+\item[loop unrolling]{
+ is a loop transformation.
+ Unrolling a loop by a factor of \(n\) consists in the substitution of a loop
+ body by itself, replicated \(n\) times. A prelude and/or postlude are
+ added to preserve the number of iteration.}
+
+\item[loop fusion]{
+ is a loop transformation that replaces two loops by a single loops whose
+ body is the concatenation of the bodies of the two initial loops.}
+
+\item[loop tiling]{
+ is a loop nest transformation that changes the loop execution order
+ through a partitions of the iteration space into
+ chunks, so that the iteration is performed over each chunk and in the
+ chunks.}
+
+\item[loop interchange]{is a loop transformation that permutes two
+ loops from a loop nest.}
+
+\item[loop unswitching]{is a loop transformation that replaces a
+ loop containing a test independent from the loop execution by a test
+ containing the loop without the test in both true and false branch.}
+
+\item[loop normalization]{is a loop transformation that changes
+ the loop initial increment value or the loop range to enforce certain values,
+ generally~1.}
+
+\end{description}
+
+\section{Inter-procedural transformations}
+
+\section{Base blocs transformations}
+
+\section{Dead code removal}
+
+
+
+
+\begin{description}
+
+
+\item[inlining]{
+ is a function transformation. Inlining a function
+ \texttt{foo} in its caller \texttt{bar} consists in the substitution
+ of the calls to \texttt{foo} in \texttt{bar} by the function body
+ after replacement of the formal parameters by their effective
+ parameters.
+}
+
+\item[forward substitution]{
+ is the process of replacing a reference read in an
+ expression by the latest expression affected to it.}
+
+
+
+
+
+\item[reduction detection]{
+ is an analysis that identifies statements that perform a reduction over a
+ variable.}
+
+\item[parallelism detection]{
+ is a common name for analysis that detect if a loop can be run in parallel.}
+
+\item[parallelism extraction]{
+ is a common name for code transformations that modifies loop nest to make it legal to
+ run them in parallel.}
+
+\item[directive generation]{
+ is a common name for code transformations that annotate the code with directives.}
+
+\item[constant propagation]{
+ is a pass that replaces a variable by its value when this value is
+ known at compile time.}
+
+\item[instruction selection]{
+ is the process of mapping parts of the IR to machine instructions.}
+
+\item[goto elimination]{
+ is the process of replacing \texttt{goto} instructions by a hierarchical control flow
+ graph.}
+\item[outlining]{
+ is the process of extracting part of a function body into a new function
+ and replacing it in the initial function by a function call.}
+
+\item[common subexpression elimination]{
+ is the process of replacing similar expressions by a variable that holds
+ the result of their evaluation.}
+
+
+
+\item[statement isolation]{is the process of replacing all
+ variables referenced in a statement by newly declared variables. A
+ prologue
+ and an epilogue are added to copy old variable values to new variable, back
+ and forth.}
+
+\item[dead code elimination]{is the process of pruning from a
+ function all the statements whose results are
+ never used.}
+
+\item[array linearization]{is the process of converting
+ multidimensional array into unidimensional arrays, possibly with a
+ conversion from array to pointer.}
+
+
+\item[iteration clamping]{is a loop transformation that extends
+ the loop range but guards the loop body with the former range.}
+
+\item[flatten code]{is the process of pruning a function body from
+ declaration blocks so that all declarations are made at the top level.}
+
+\item[strength reduction]{is the process of replacing an operation
+ by an operation of lower cost.}
+
+\item[split update operator]{is the process of replacing an update
+ operator by its expanded form.}
+
+\item[n address code generation]{is the process of splitting
+ complex expression in simpler ones that take at most \(n\) operands.}
+
+\item[memory footprint reduction]{is the process of tiling a loop
+ to make sure the iteration over the tile has a memory footprint bounded by
+ a given value.}
+
+\item[redundant load-store elimination]{is an inter procedural transformation
+ that optimizes data transfers by delaying and merging them.}
+
+\item[invariant code motion]{is a loop transformation that moves outside
+ of the loop
+ the code from its body that is independent from the iteration.}
+
+
+
+\item[loop rerolling]{finds manually unrolled loop and replace
+ them by their non-unrolled version.}
