Course Description (CS3320)

The objective of this course is to learn basic principles of compiler design. The course will focus on basic principles of lexical analysis, syntactic analysis, semantic analysis, abstract syntax tree and code-generation as well as basic optimizations.

The initial part of both the courses will focus on the classic techniques of lexical analysis and scanning/screening, syntactic analysis like bottom-up and top-down parsing techniques. The later part of the course will skim through semantic analysis, type-checking, abstract syntax tree and code generation and some basic optimizations.
