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. The first part of the book, Fundamentals of Compilation, is suitable for a one-semester first course in compiler design. Detailed descriptions of the interfaces between modules of a compiler are illustrated with actual C header files.
The most accepted and successful techniques are described in a concise way, rather than as an exhaustive catalog of every possible variant. In addition, more advanced chapters are now included so that it can be used as the basis for two-semester or graduate course. 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. 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. The project includes both front-end and back-end phases, so that students can build a complete working compiler in one semester. A unique feature is the newly redesigned compiler project in Java, for a subset of Java itself. This new edition has been extensively rewritten to include more discussion of Java and object-oriented programming concepts, such as visitor patterns.
