COSC 57 Compilers

Techniques for automatic translation of programming languages are discussed. The course includes a brief survey of various techniques and formalisms that can be used for describing the syntax and semantics of programming languages, for describing abstract and concrete machine architectures, and for describing program translation and transformation. This course includes a project to construct a compiler that will translate a program written in a high-level language into machine code for a conventional-architecture machine.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
