Summary	libFirm provides intermediate representation, optimizations, and code generation suitable for use in compilers
Description	libFirm is a C library implementing the Firm low-level intermediate representation. Firm is used to represent a computer program in order to analyse and transform it. Its main application is compiler construction where we use it to represent, optimize and transform C and Java programs to native machine code. The most important features of Firm are that it is * low-level which means that the representation of the program is closer to machine code than to the language. * completely graph based which means that there are no instruction lists or triple code, only data dependence and control flow graphs. * completely SSA based which means that the code of the program is always in SSA form.
