Summary
Engineering a Compiler， Third Edition covers the latest developments in compiler technology， with new chapters focusing on semantic elaboration （the problems that arise in generating code from the ad-hoc syntax-directed translation schemes in a generated parser）， on runtime support for naming and addressability， and on code shape for expressions， assignments and control-structures。 Leading educators and researchers， Keith Cooper and Linda Torczon， have revised this popular text with a fresh approach to learning important techniques for constructing a modern compiler， combining basic principles with pragmatic insights from their own experience building state-of-the-art compilers。

I read most of this for the OMSCS compilers course and generally found it interesting and useful。 I read most of this for the OMSCS compilers course and generally found it interesting and useful。 。。。more

I enjoyed how the author clearly explained how algorithms in the compilers is working， especially the layout part that I think also contributed to the fact that it’s easier for me to read it。

I hate to say this， but I wasn't as impressed with this book as I thought I should have been， GIVEN its place in the pantheon of programming books。However， I still list this as a must read for all developers。 I hate to say this， but I wasn't as impressed with this book as I thought I should have been， GIVEN its place in the pantheon of programming books。However， I still list this as a must read for all developers。 。。。more

The book is full of valuable insights and good， elbaorate explanations。 Well worth the read。

It may be a great introduction， but I will never know。 The problems with books like this is that they skim over topics not going deep into the subject ever。 This book has some good chapters。 The content in the book is not dense， it’s written in very dry academic style。 In plain english， it is just boring。 I cannot see anyone reading this book from cover to cover。 And yet it is not a reference。 I do not recommend it。

A lit bit boring， filled with well-known facts， very weak front-end。 But after all this is just a intro to compiler。

Given that this can easily be made into a very confusing and convoluted subject， this book does a really good job of simplifying Compiler Engineering。 Still I must give a warning that this subject is not for the faint of heart。

Engineering a Compiler is an excellent introductory text on compilers。 I particularly enjoyed the textbook's clean layout and design and cleanly written algorithms placed very close to the paragraphs where they are relevant。Particularly after reading Muchnick， I found the amount of text explanation with a lack of concrete examples to be disturbing。 Whole sections pass without any accompanying code examples。 While I didn't think that pseudocode would have particularly enriched these topics， and I Engineering a Compiler is an excellent introductory text on compilers。 I particularly enjoyed the textbook's clean layout and design and cleanly written algorithms placed very close to the paragraphs where they are relevant。Particularly after reading Muchnick， I found the amount of text explanation with a lack of concrete examples to be disturbing。 Whole sections pass without any accompanying code examples。 While I didn't think that pseudocode would have particularly enriched these topics， and I could certainly look up the relevant papers provided in the bibliography， I found the lack of a concrete representation to work with left me somehow wanting more。All in all I suggest Engineering a Compiler as an excellent candidate for easy entry into a discussion on compilers， or an undergraduate text。 After reading this textbook， if you're still hungry for more on compilers， try Appel's Compilers in ML and Muchnick's Advanced Compiler Design and Implementation。 。。。more

Engineering a Compiler is the default follow up for Engineering students after having just completed theory of computer science course laying common foundation with pure science。

Alright book if you are looking for a good overview of compiler concepts。 I read this while using the Dragon Book as a reference， and I think in the future I will definitely use the Dragon book to look up information， but this book did a much better job of explaining concepts in a non-technical way first。

GT Barnes & Noble 2009-01-0x。 I've been reading too many books and papers about compilers the past few months to really enjoy this book very much， especially compared to Kennedy's and Muchinek's。 This is kind of the "West End" or perhaps "Goals 2000" of the trio they form， with the least rigorous presentation and most minimal coverage。 I think we're using this in CS6241 only because so many MS students are gormless waste-wits， admitted only to collect some tuition （I'm coming to loathe introduci GT Barnes & Noble 2009-01-0x。 I've been reading too many books and papers about compilers the past few months to really enjoy this book very much， especially compared to Kennedy's and Muchinek's。 This is kind of the "West End" or perhaps "Goals 2000" of the trio they form， with the least rigorous presentation and most minimal coverage。 I think we're using this in CS6241 only because so many MS students are gormless waste-wits， admitted only to collect some tuition （I'm coming to loathe introducing myself as an MS student; until I start my PhD， I'm going to stick with "principal engineer， mcafee" and only admit I'm also a student when prodded）。 Sigh， such is life！ 。。。more
