	Digg - Basics of Compiler Design
		Compilers was one of those classes I wanted to take, but didn't have an opportunity to as a CS undergrad.
		It's a shame compiler design is left to upper year courses.
		I took compiler design in university, and I can safely say that 90% of software developers need not bother remember what they learned there, except that I did learn an efficient way to parse data using lookup tables.

	Compiler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Compilers also exist which translate from one high level language to another, or sometimes to an intermediate language that still needs further processing; these are sometimes known as cascaders.
		Building a self-hosting compiler is a bootstrapping problem -- the first such compiler for a language must be compiled either by a compiler written in a different language, or (as in Hart and Levin's Lisp compiler) compiled by running the compiler in an interpreter.
		Compilers which are capable of producing both native and foreign binary output may be called either a cross-compiler or a native compiler depending on a specific use, although it would be more correct to classify them as a cross-compilers.

		Most compilers translate source code written in a high level language to object code or machine language that may be directly executed by a computer or a virtual machine.
		Several experimental compilers were developed in the 1950s, but the FORTRAN team led by John Backus at IBM is generally credited as having introduced the first complete compiler, in 1957.
		During the 1990s a large number of free compilers and compiler development tools have been developed for all kinds of languages, both as part of the GNU project and other open-source initiatives.

	Principles of Compiler Design - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Principles of Compiler Design, by Alfred V. Aho and Jeffrey D. Ullman, is a classic textbook on compilers for computer programming languages.
		It is often called the "dragon book" because its cover depicts a knight and a dragon in battle; the dragon is green, and labeled "Complexity of Compiler Construction", while the knight wields a lance labeled "LALR parser generator".
		Principles of Compiler Design is now rather dated, but when it came out in 1977, it was hailed for its practical bent; it included treatments of all compilation phases, with sufficient algorithmic detail that students could build their own small compilers in a semester.

	Compiler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		A compiler is a computer program that translates a computer program written in one computer language (called the source language) into a program written in another computer language (called the output or the target language).
		However, a compiler from a low level language to a high level one is also possible; this is normally known as a decompiler if it is reconstructing a high level language which (could have) generated the low level language.
		While compiler design is a complex task, this approach mitigates the complexity by allowing either the front end or back end to retarget the compiler's source or output language respectively.

		A compiler is a compter program that translates a computer program written in one computer language (called the source language) into an equivalent program written in another computer language (called the output, object, or target language).
		Compilers: Principles, Techniques and Tools by Alfred V. Aho, Ravi Sethi, and Jeffrey D. Ullman is considered to be the standard authority on compiler basics, and makes a good primer for the techniques mentioned above.
		Understanding and Writing Compilers: A Do It Yourself Guide by Richard Bornat is an unusually helpful book, being one of the few that adequately explains the recursive generation of machine instructions from a parse-tree.

	Modern Compiler Design Web page - John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
		A compiler is one of the most vital parts of a computer's system software, translating programs written in a high-level language into low-level commands that the machine can understand and execute.
		Most compiler design books focus only on techniques for imperative (or procedural) languages like C or Pascal, whereas Modern Compiler Design also covers compilation techniques for object-oriented, functional, logic and distributed languages.
		All the authors are experienced teachers and researchers in programming languages and their implementation and have acquired a wealth of experience in compiler construction for a variety of languages.

		Building a compiler is both science and fl art and demands an intimate knowledge of data structures, algorithms, high-level programming languages, and processor architectures and their instruction sets.
		We begin by reviewing the structure of compilers and then proceed to lay the groundwork for our exploration of the advanced topics in compiler design and implementation discussed in the remainder of the book.
		These compilers will understand the intentions of the program and warn the user if these are violated, as well as reduce the time and cost needed for testing programs.

		Thus compiler writing is more about computer and algorithms by themselves and as such is IMHO more attractive for those who is interested in those areas.
		The "coalescing" style of compiler in particular in many ways resembles the work of a good assembly programmer: design your data structures and inner loops together, and early on in the design process.
		Various kinds of optimization and global analysis are done by compilers, but in the absence of application knowledge, it is hard to bound their runtime.
