Summary

Typed Assembly Language (TAL) adds typing annotations, memory management primitives, and a sound type system to traditional assembly, guaranteeing memory, control-flow, and type safety. Its expressive typing supports many source-language features and enables safe low-level optimizations, making it a strong target for type-directed compilers in secure mobile code and extensible kernels; a TALx86 variant exists for IA32 with a compiler from Popcorn to TALx86.
