The course presents techniques, theories, and tools used to constructing a compiler. The course also discusses how these ideas can be used to define and interpret domain specific languages within model­driven software engineering. As a result, the course focuses on the compiler front­end and runtime interpretation of intermediate program representations. The following topics are covered:

-  Different compilation phases
-  Object­oriented compiler design
-  Lexical analysis based on finite automata and regular languages
-  Context­free grammars and languages
-  Different parsing techniques for context­free languages
-  Type systems and type inference
-  Attributed grammars
-  Semantic analysis
-  Intermediate program representations
-  Code generation
-  Stack­based execution

The course will be given during the period: 31/8 -1/11 2020
Please sign up no later than 23/8 2020
