We investigate the intersection of Church-Rosser languages and (strongly) context-free languages. The intersection is still a proper superset of the deterministic context-free languages as well as of their reversals, while its membership problem is solvable in linear time. For the problem whether a given Church-Rosser or context-free language belongs to the intersection we show completeness for the second level of the arithmetic hierarchy. The equivalence of Church-Rosser and context-free languages is Π1-complete. It is proved that all considered intersections are pairwise incomparable. Finally, closure properties under several operations are investigated.

The pointer alias is indispensable for program analysis. Comparing to point-to set, it’s more efficient to formulate the alias as the context free language (CFL) reachability problem. However, the precision is limited to flow-insensitivity. To solve this problem, we propose a flow sensitive, demand-driven analysis algorithm for answering may-alias queries. First the partial single static assignment is used to discriminate the address-taken pointers. Then the order of control flow is encoded in the level linearization code to ease comparison. Finally, the query of alias in demand driven is converted into the search of CFL reachability with feasible flows. The experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
