While compilers for high-level programming languages are large complex software systems, they have particular characteristics that differentiate them from other software systems. Their functionality is almost completely well-defined – ideally there exist complete precise descriptions of the source and target languages, while additional...
In the past compiler writers and designers seemed to form an elite group within computing science, set apart by their esoteric knowledge and their ability to produce large, important system programs which really worked. The admiration of the computing public, whether it was once deserved or not, is no longer merited now that the principles of...

The compiler is one of the most important aspects of system software. When
any computer user develops a computer program, one must use some programming
language, rather than using a computer instruction set. This implies
that there must be the compiler of the programming language that
has been installed on the computer one uses, and...
This book offers unique and valuable contributions to the field. It offers breadth and inclusiveness. Most existing works on automotive painting cover only a single aspect of this complex topic, such as the chemistry of paint or paint booth technology. Monozukuri and Hitozukuri are Japanese terms that can be translated as “making...
This book is a translation of Rockford Lhotka's industry-standard title—Expert One-on-One Visual Basic .NET Business Objects—into C# language. Lhotka's ideas remain extremely influential in .NET development, and this book translates those ideas directly to you, the C# programmer.
I have been head of the Project Management Office of a financial institution for some time. I am responsible for the organisation and professionalization of projects and programmes. I also take care of the guidance, coaching and training of project managers.
The management of the institution for which I work has chosen PRINCE2® as...
All atomic particles have a particular "spin," analogous to the earth's rotation on its axis. The quantum mechanical reality underlying spin is complex and still poorly understood. Sin-itiro Tomonaga's The Story of Spin remains the most complete and accessible treatment of spin, and is now available in English translation....
Please do not consider any construction you find in this
book to be a final or definitive design. There is always room
for tinkering and improvements: As a matter of fact, some of
the constructions shown in this guide make deliberate use of
basic LEGO pieces, to help those who try to build with limited...
This book provides a practically-oriented introduction to high-level programming language implementation. It demystifies what goes on within a compiler and stimulates the reader's interest in compiler design, an essential aspect of computer science. Programming language analysis and translation techniques are used in many software...
