Description: This book literally flew off bookstore shelves when first published in August of 1997. In that first year, we sold more than 5,500 copies and we have sold several thousand since. Why? Simply because no other book provides this kind of detailed information and insight to the professional compiler designer. Sixty percent of this book is focused on code optimization -- the key performance booster for any compiler and the primary activity of most compiler designers. Most other books provide only a chapter or two on this essential topic. Like other classic Morgan Kaufmann titles, this book should sell for years and is quickly becoming the classic text/reference for advanced compiler design.
