Principles of Compiler Design Lecture Notes
These lecture notes are based on structured approaches toward understanding compiler design, provided by the Kavery Educational Institutions. The paper presents the core issues of lexical analysis, syntax analysis, and runtime environments that, together, form the bedrock of more advanced topics in-depth. It goes on to explain intermediate code generation, one of the main steps in source-to-source translation from high-level source code to target machine code. Moreover, it will also cover the most important topics in code generation and optimization techniques, thus helping readers see how—through practical points—compilers transform and optimize source code. These lecture notes are ideal for any student who is interested in the comprehensive idea of design principles and practices concerning compilers, which are developed with a proper blend of theoretical foundations of practice.

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
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
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.

Introduction to Compilers and Language Design
Prof. Douglas Thain's course introduction covers the fundamentals of compiler and language design. This book starts with a quick tour of compiler concepts, then proceeds into careful sections on scanning and parsing, practical parsing techniques, generation of abstract syntax trees, semantic analysis, and intermediate representations. Moreover, it demonstrates the memory organization, assembly language, code generation, and optimization. Any student who requires a detailed view of both theory and practice in compiler design will find this resource helpful.

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.

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.
