This paper describes the compiler that transforms a FAD program into a load module targeted for execution on Bubba. In addition to low level code generation, the major functions of the compiler are static type checking and inferencing, optimization with respect to Bubba resources, and parallelization. This leads to efficient, type secure execution on Bubba.

The paper provides an overall description of FAD, and discusses the design rationale behind a number of its distinguishing features. Comparisons with other database programming languages are provided.
