Modern compiler design

Most compiler design books focus only on techniques for imperative or procedural languages. This book also covers compilation techniques for object-oriented, functional, logic, and distributed languages. The authors, all of whom have first-hand experience with compiling techniques, present essential techniques common to all language paradigms and focus on developing the skills required for modern compiler construction. Topics include from program to text-annotated syntax tree, processing the abstract syntax tree-the semantics, imperative and object-oriented programs, functional programs, and more.
