Compiler Construction by Gerhard Goos and William M. Waite

Compiler Construction, a modern text written by two leaders in the in the field, demonstrates how a compiler is built. Describing the necessary tools and how to create and use them, the authors compose the task into modules, placing equal emphasis on the action and data aspects of compilation. Attribute grammars are used extensively to provide a uniform treatment ofsemantic analysis, competent code generation and assembly. The authors also explain how intermediate representations can be chosen automatically on the basis of attribute dependence. Thus, all aspects of the sub ject are presented in terms of a uniform model sub ject to automation. This approach imparts a vivid understanding of the compilation and the decisions that must be made when designing a compiler.

Comiler Design Notes by Avinav Pathak

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.

An Overview of compiler design

An Overview of compiler design

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.

compiler construction using flex and bison

compiler construction using flex and bison

The guide by Anthony A. Aaby deals in detail with compilation using Flex and Bison. Starting from some basic ideas about the parser and scanner, it moves to an implementation of a simple compiler. In its subtopics, it contains design of the parser, implementation of the scanner, symbol table, and code generation. This document also handles optimization techniques, virtual machines, and peephole optimization. It provides practical advice on how to use Yacc or Bison, including debugging tips and the different stages in developing a parser. As such, this is an indispensable resource to someone looking to understand the hands-on aspects of compiler construction using these very widely used tools.

Compiler Design by Frank Pfenning

Compiler Design by Frank Pfenning

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.

Compilers Course Notes

Compilers Course Notes

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.

Advanced Compiler Construction by John Cavazos

Advanced Compiler Construction by John Cavazos

Online notes by John Cavazos cover advanced topics in compiler construction. It provides a survey of some basic theory and practice in implementing modern programming languages, starting from lexical analysis to parsing techniques—the top-down and bottom-up—with table construction. Then, procedure abstraction, code shape, and register allocation follow. This resource is an ideal one for a person willing to get deeper into the intricacies of compiler construction and various optimization techniques.
