If I understood what you said correctly, you mean translating something to SQL?

The problem this paper is trying to solve is how we can generate binary code fast. If your target (i.e. the stuff you want to generate in the end) is not binary code, but some high level representation like a SQL text, then I think it doesn't have much to do with the technique in our paper.

Got it -- yeah this is the key bit I was wondering about:

Still really interesting though, thanks for sharing =)

Surprised there aren't more comments/votes.
