An Introduction to Compiler Construction 2007 | 438 pages | ISBN:0673398226 | PDF | 8 Mb This text is orientated towards actual construction of a compiler, rather than the theory underlying compiler construction. This hands-on approach allows students to write a complete compiler which translates a simple algorithmic language to the assembly code of a real computer. The book gives a consistent overall picture of the compiler construction problem, emphasizing the important sub-problems and providing systematic, intuitive approaches to solving them.
