Research and Labs
Research, open source, and paper support
We publish our own systems work openly, and CrossGL Labs helps builders turn serious technical products into credible papers with research direction, writing support, and submission guidance.
CrossGL Labs
Buy the membership, then we help you shape and publish the paper.
CrossGL Labs is for founders, engineers, students, and research teams with a real technical project but not enough time or review bandwidth to turn it into a polished paper.
Scope the claim
We turn your product, implementation, or experiment into a defensible research question with a concrete publication target.
Build the evidence
We review methodology, experiment design, figures, ablations, related work, and reproducibility requirements.
Package the paper
We help draft, edit, cite, format, and prepare the submission path for arXiv, workshops, or conferences.
50% back if the agreed CrossGL Labs deliverable milestone is not reached.
We help create and package the work. Third-party paper acceptance is always controlled by the publisher, workshop, conference, or moderation process.

Published preprint
CrossTL: A Universal Programming Language Translator with Unified Intermediate Representation
CrossTL uses CrossGL as a universal IR to enable bidirectional translation across GPU compute, graphics programming, and systems-language targets.
Translation targets
How CrossTL is structured
The compiler pipeline is intentionally modular, so new source and target languages can be added without rebuilding every language pair.
Parse
Language-specific lexers and parsers convert source code into structured ASTs.
Normalize
CrossGL acts as a shared intermediate representation for graphics, compute, and systems code.
Generate
Backend code generators emit target-specific code while preserving source intent.
Cite our work
If you use CrossTL in academic work, cite the arXiv preprint so the research and implementation can be traced together.
