## Abstract
Existing dataflow tools are difficult to integrate with the state-of-the-art industrial compilers. We approach this problem by creating an IR for static dataflow using MLIR, a flexible and powerful framework for modular compilers, and demonstrate it by implementing a novel dead code elimination optimization that relies on both actor and graph information.
