Modern Compiler Design

“This book covers compilation techniques for object-oriented, functional, logic and distributed languages. It focuses on essential techniques common to all language paradigms, and gives students the skills required for modern compiler construction.”

“Modern Compiler Design makes the topic of compiler design more accessible by focusing on principles and techniques of wide application. By carefully distinguishing between the essential (material that has a high chance of being useful) and the incidental (material that will be of benefit only in exceptional cases) much useful information was packed in this comprehensive volume. The student who has finished this book can expect to understand the workings of and add to a language processor for each of the modern paradigms, and be able to read the literature on how to proceed.”
