Basics of Compiler Design by Torben Egidius Mogensen
Authored by Torben Egidius Mogensen from the
University of Copenhagen, this lengthy document is an excellent introduction to
compiler design. Beginning with basic concepts of lexical and syntax analysis,
it goes through the advanced themes that include scopes, symbol tables, and
interpretation. Further, type checking, intermediate code generation, and
machine code generation are explained in detail, making the whole process of
compilation familiar to the reader. It covers key topics such as register
allocation, function calls, memory management, analysis, and optimization, and
even bootstrapping a compiler. This text will be very useful to anyone who wants
to research both theoretical and practical problems concerned with compiler
construction.

These notes by Avinav Pathak from Shobhit
Institute of Engineering and Technology, Meerut, give a crisp, comprehensive
overview of compiler design. It covers the role of the compiler and translator.
Detailed lexical analysis is done, along with the implementation of a lexical
analyzer. Basic parsing techniques and syntax analyzer generators have been
dealt with, along with runtime memory management and error detection and
recovery strategies. The topics of code optimization and code generation are
well covered in these notes, too. This will be useful for students and
professionals who want an accessible lead-in to compiler design and its main
elements.

Y.N. Srikant has given a
comprehensive, deep description of compiler design and related subjects; the
book focuses on the detail of the same. It involves, in itself, parsers and
interpreters of JavaScript and Flash, machine code generation, and software
testing; it lays its focus also on the detailed account of advanced topics of
optimization techniques, malicious code detection, and new computer type
designing architectures. It gives insights into compiler-in-the-loop hardware
development, hardware synthesis, VHDL-to-RTL translation, and compiled
simulation. The value of the book is really important because it will serve the
purpose for readers who intend to focus on the theoretical and practical aspects
of developing modern compilers and related technologies.
Frank Pfenning's online
resource deals with the design and implementation of compiler and runtime
systems for high-level languages. It covers the interactions between language
design, compiler design, and runtime organization. Key topics include lexical
and syntactic analysis, type-checking, program analysis, code generation, and
optimization. It is useful to anyone interested in learning about the whole
process of compiler development and how various parts of a programming language
implementation interact.
These course notes from the
University of Wales Swansea provide an introduction to compiler design, focusing
on formal language theory. It covers lexical and syntax analysis, parsing,
symbol tables, and semantic analysis. The course includes practices in using
tools like Javacc and the Tiny machine simulator to get practical experience in
compiler construction. It will, therefore, be very resourceful to students and
practitioners seeking to develop basic knowledge on compiler design and its
application in the recognition and processing of programming languages.
Mark van den
Brand's course notes provide a very topical and elaborate exposition to the
design of compilers. The topics covered range from compilation processes through
lexical and syntax analysis to the different parsing techniques, including
top-down and bottom-up parsers. It also treated tools like Lex and Javacc,
Symbol tables, and Semantic Analysis. This resource has a place in the process
of acquiring a deep understanding of compiler construction, from basic
principles to practical applications.
