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.

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.
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.

Mrs.
G. Indiravathi's lecture notes focus on the principles of compiler design. These
lecture notes deal with major concepts related to language processing systems,
top-down parsing, and generation of intermediate code. There is a discussion of
runtime environments and how compilers conduct execution and memory within the
ambit of a program. Students will find these notes very useful, which enable an
overview of compiler design and its constituents in detail through
practice-oriented explanation and examples.
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.
