This classroom-tested and clearly-written textbook presents a
focused guide to the conceptual foundations of compilation,
explaining the fundamental principles and algorithms used for
defining the syntax of languages, and for implementing simple
translators. This significantly updated and expanded third edition
has been enhanced with additional coverage of regular expressions,
visibly pushdown languages, bottom-up and top-down deterministic
parsing algorithms, and new grammar models. Topics and features:
describes the principles and methods used in designing
syntax-directed applications such as parsing and regular expression
matching; covers translations, semantic functions (attribute
grammars), and static program analysis by data flow equations;
introduces an efficient method for string matching and parsing
suitable for ambiguous regular expressions (NEW); presents a focus
on extended BNF grammars with their general parser and with LR(1)
and LL(1) parsers (NEW); introduces a parallel parsing algorithm
that exploits multiple processing threads to speed up syntax
analysis of large files; discusses recent formal models of
input-driven automata and languages (NEW); includes extensive use
of theoretical models of automata, transducers and formal grammars,
and describes all algorithms in pseudocode; contains numerous
illustrative examples, and supplies a large set of exercises with
solutions at an associated website. Advanced undergraduate and
graduate students of computer science will find this
reader-friendly textbook to be an invaluable guide to the essential
concepts of syntax-directed compilation. The fundamental paradigms
of language structures are elegantly explained in terms of the
underlying theory, without requiring the use of software tools or
knowledge of implementation, and through algorithms simple enough
to be practiced by paper and pencil.
