abstract = "We have investigated the potential for using genetic
programming to evolve compiler parsing and translation
routines for processing arithmetic and logical
expressions as they are used in a typical programming
language. Parsing and translation are important and
complex real-world problems for which evolved solutions
must make use of a range of programming constructs. The
exercise also tests the ability of genetic programming
to evolve extensive and appropriate use of abstract
data types namely, stacks. Experimentation suggests
that the evolution of such code is achievable, provided
that program function and terminal sets are judiciously
chosen.",
