       abstract = "The adjoint code generator (ADG) is developed to produce the adjoint codes, which
         are used to analytically calculate gradients and the Hessian-vector products with the costs
         independent of the number of the independent variables. Different from other automatic
         differentiation tools, the implementation of ADG has advantages of using the least program behavior
         decomposition method and several static dependence analysis techniques. In this paper we first
         address the concerned concepts and fundamentals, and then introduce the functionality and the
         features of ADG. In particular, we also discuss the design architecture of ADG and implementation
         details including the recomputation and storing strategy and several techniques for code
         optimization. Some experimental results in several applications are presented at the end.",
