dc.description.abstract	An implementation of a Graham-Glanville type pattern-matching code generator for the NRIMS systems programming language SCRAP is discussed. The simple heuristic algorithm on which the pattern matcher is based is presented and compared to more exhaustive and complex algorithms implemented elsewhere. Finally, optimal instruction selection as a method of code improvement is discussed. The pattern matcher has been implemented for the Perkin Elmer 3200 and the Motorola 68000 instruction sets.	en
