Compilers WM-I-S2-E1-ZF1
These units provide an introduction to compilers and their construction.
Topics covered include grammars, lexical analysis, syntactic analysis,
intermediate code generation, code optimisation,
object code generation, symbol tables and error handling.
A balance is maintained between providing enough theoretical background
to enable a clear understanding of the subject and giving a practical
presentation that will both illustrate concepts and allow you to
develop simple compilers. Therefore, this unit covers both the required
theory as well as several elegant compiling techniques that are beneficial to
software engineers. The techniques used to implement lexical
analysers can be applied to other areas such as query languages and
information retrieval systems.

Learning outcomes
On completing this unit, students will be able to:
- list the components of a compiler;
- define token patterns and grammars using formal notation;
- construct a Recursive Descent Parser;
- construct a Syntax Directed Translator; and
- list optimization techniques used by compilers.
Assessment criteria
For all effects, the following assessment criteria are adopted for all forms of verification:
grade 5: fully achieved (no obvious shortcomings)
grade 4.5: achieved almost fully and criteria for awarding a higher grade are not met
grade 4: largely achieved and the criteria for a higher grade are not met
grade 3.5: largely achieved - with a clear majority of positives - and the criteria for granting a higher grade are not met
grade 3: achieved for most of the cases covered by the verification and criteria for a higher grade are not met grade 2: not achieved for most of the cases covered by the verification
