Abstract
A computer-implemented probabilistic pointer analysis method using SSA form comprises the steps of: evaluating a program in an SSA form comprising a target pointer to determine pointer relations between the target pointer, a plurality of aliased pointers related to the target pointer and at least a probable location of the target pointer; and generating a direct probabilistic relation between the target pointer and the at least a probable location of the target pointer according to the pointer relation.
