This comprehensive work examines advanced issues in the design & implementation of compilers for modern processors. Written forprofessionals & graduate students, the book guides readers in designing& implementing efficient structures for highly optimizing compilers forreal-world languages. Covering advanced issues in fundamental areas ofcompiler design, this book discusses a wide array of possible codeoptimizations, determining the relative importance of optimizations, andselecting the most effective methods of implementation.- Lays the foundation for understanding the major issues of advanced compiler design;- Treats optimization in-depth;- Uses four case studies of commercial compiling suites to illustrate different approaches to compiler structure, intermediate-code design, and optimization - these include Sun Microsystems's compiler for SPARC, IBM's for POWER & PowerPC, DEC's for Alpha, and Intel's for Pentium an related processors;- Presents numerous clearly defined algorithms based on actual cases;- Introduces Informal Compiler Algorithm Notation (ICAN), a language devised by the author to communicate algorithms effectively to people.
