Product Description

Review
"Contains most up-to-date compiler techniques. Contains good programming assignment." Professor Zhong Shao, Yale University

Product Description
This new, expanded textbook describes all phases of a modern compiler: lexical analysis, parsing, abstract syntax, semantic actions, intermediate representations, instruction selection via tree matching, dataflow analysis, graph-coloring register allocation, and runtime systems. It includes good coverage of current techniques in code generation and register allocation, as well as functional and object-oriented languages, that are missing from most books. In addition, more advanced chapters are now included so that it can be used as the basis for two-semester or graduate course. The most accepted and successful techniques are described in a concise way, rather than as an exhaustive catalog of every possible variant. Detailed descriptions of the interfaces between modules of a compiler are illustrated with actual C header files. The first part of the book, Fundamentals of Compilation, is suitable for a one-semester first course in compiler design. The second part, Advanced Topics, which includes the advanced chapters, covers the compilation of object-oriented and functional languages, garbage collection, loop optimizations, SSA form, loop scheduling, and optimization for cache-memory hierarchies.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not good for compiler beginners - but good for intermediates, 13 Nov 1998
By A Customer
The first part of the book is intended for undergraduate university student and the second part is for graduate students. I have only read the first part and browsed the second part. The frist part is founded on the development of a compiler - the tiger compiler and that is the flaw of the book. The tiger compiler is fairly advanced and it is built up one phase at the time (ses chapter headings in the synopsis). A undergraduate reader who has never read anything about compiler design before will be buffled. The book is good in the way that it presents many good compiler design ideas adn I learned a lot from it. I just think that the first part of the book has too steep a learning curve - even if you are proficient with ML, which is an absolute must. Recommended for serious readers who know a little about compilers before reading it - others should to the older and somewhat outdated book: Aho, Sethi & Ullman: Compilers - Principles, Techniques and Tools.
