- "Two fundamental static-analysis problems are may alias and must alias. The former is not recursive (is undecidable), and the latter is not recursively enumerable (is uncomputable), even when all paths are executable in the program being analyzed for languages with if statements, loops, dynamic storage, and recursive data structures."
