Textbook:
|
Modern Compiler Implementation in Java.
Second Edition.
Andrew W. Appel with Jens Palsberg.
Cambridge.
|
We will be covering Chapters 1 through 12, the "Fundamentals of
Compilation." The second half of the textbook consists of
advanced topics more appropriate for a second, graduate-level
compilers course.
|
|
Course Outcomes:
|
Upon completing this course, students will be able to:
Recognize various classes of grammars, languages, and automata,
and employ these to solve common software problems.
Explain the major steps involved in compiling a high-level
programming language down to a low-level target machine language;
Construct and use the major components of a modern compiler;
Work together effectively in teams on a substantial software
implementation project.

Students must pass BOTH the exam portion of the grade AND and
homework/project assignment portion of the grade to pass the course
overall.
Assignments are to be completed individually, except when
specifically noted otherwise. You may discuss course topics
with your collegues, but written work and programmed code
is not to be shared under any circumstances.
Academic dishonesty (claiming another person's work as your
own) will not be tolerated. Infractions will result in immediate
failure of the course, and referral to the Dean's office.
If you are not certain what constitutes fair play and what
will be considered academic dishonesty, please ask the instructor.
