Lightweight Modular Staging (LMS) is a runtime code generation approach. This framework, LMS-Core, provides a library of core components for building high performance code generators and embedded compilers in Scala.

Closely related projects are Delite, a framework for heterogeneous parallel domain specific languages (DSLs), and Scala-Virtualized, a set of minimal extensions to the Scala compiler to make embedding DSLs more seamless.

Background:

• LMS paper

• Delite website

• Scala-Virtualized wiki

How to build:

1. Install the simple build tool (SBT). You will need version 0.12.0 of sbt-launch.jar. Follow the installation instructions on the SBT website.

2. Run sbt test to run the test suite.

3. Run sbt publish-local to install LMS-Core for use in other projects.
