The authors discuss the possibility of using neural network optimization to perform optimized code generation, and list possible benefits. The approach used by Hopfield and Tank to treat the traveling salesman is extended to cover the motion of abstract quantities through a computer. A simple general method for constructing complicated syntactic constraints is introduced, applicable to both sequential and parallel target architectures. They test the approach on some very elementary examples of sequential code, by simulation.
