  Formal languages and compilation (3rd ed.)
Reghizzi S., Breveglieri L., Morzenti A., Springer International Publishing, New York, NY, 2019. 499 pp.  Type: Book (978-3-030048-78-5)

Compiler construction literature has always been an interesting mixture of clever tricks and deep theory. Most textbooks try to deal with both aspects, usually emphasizing theory at the beginning and then moving on to the tricks necess...

  Flextended tiles: a flexible extension of overlapped tiles for polyhedral compilation
Zhao J., Cohen A. ACM Transactions on Architecture and Code Optimization 16(4): 1-25, 2019.  Type: Article

This paper describes a proposal for implementing “overlapped tiling in a general-purpose polyhedral compilation framework,” namely the polyhedral parallel code generator (PPCG) compiler. The technique improves the p...

  A survey on compiler autotuning using machine learning
Ashouri A., Killian W., Cavazos J., Palermo G., Silvano C. ACM Computing Surveys 51(5): 1-42, 2019.  Type: Article

Most modern compilers contain an optimization phase that tries to optimize the emitted machine code with respect to different objectives. Often this phase is heuristic, and the heuristics can usually be selected or influenced by progra...

  Programming for hybrid multi/manycore MPP systems
Levesque J., Vose A., Chapman&Hall/CRC, Boca Raton, FL, 2018. 341 pp.  Type: Book (978-1-439873-71-7)

To quote John Levesque, coauthor and director of Cray’s Supercomputing Center of Excellence: “Ask not what your compiler can do for you, ask what you can do for your compiler.” As the book states, it is ne...

  Introduction to compiler design (2nd ed.)
Mogensen T., Springer International Publishing, New York, NY, 2017. 258 pp.  Type: Book (978-3-319669-65-6)

Compiler design seems to be a rather narrow topic, which should interest only computer science undergraduate or graduate students in the framework of a mandatory course. After all, how many people will have in their professional life t...

  Compiler-assisted loop hardening against fault attacks
Proy J., Heydemann K., Berzati A., Cohen A. ACM Transactions on Architecture and Code Optimization 14(4): 1-25, 2017.  Type: Article

The problem to solve is the following: the uncontrolled development of the Internet of Things (IoT) results in personal data being handled by a huge variety of devices, which do not satisfy the safety conditions considered mandatory in...

  ReRanz: a light-weight virtual machine to mitigate memory disclosure attacks
Wang Z., Wu C., Li J., Lai Y., Zhang X., Hsu W., Cheng Y.  VEE 2017 (Proceedings of the 13th ACM SIGPLAN/SIGOPS International Conference on Virtual Execution Environments, Xi’an, China, Apr 8-9, 2017) 143-156, 2017.  Type: Proceedings

When a hacker exploits a buffer overflow, the objective is to get the target to execute code that will give the hacker control of the machine. Modern hardware prevents straightforward code injection, so the hacker makes use of code fra...

  A practical approach to compiler construction
Watson D., Springer International Publishing, New York, NY, 2017. 254 pp.  Type: Book (978-3-319527-87-1), Reviews: (2 of 2)

Several comprehensive books have been written about compiler construction. Any new book on this topic is inevitably going to be compared against those works. However, by taking a different approach, a new book can set itself apart. Thi...

  Compiler-based code generation and autotuning for geometric multigrid on GPU-accelerated supercomputers
Basu P., Williams S., Van Straalen B., Oliker L., Colella P., Hall M. Parallel Computing 64 50-64, 2017.  Type: Article

Basu et al. present a code generation and autotuning technique for geometric multigrid codes targeted for graphics processing unit (GPU)-accelerated supercomputers using the CUDA-CHiLL compilation framework....

  A practical approach to compiler construction
Watson D., Springer International Publishing, New York, NY, 2017. 254 pp.  Type: Book (978-3-319527-87-1), Reviews: (1 of 2)

Designing an undergraduate compiler construction textbook is difficult. The market is diverse, with different departments having quite different goals and diverse prerequisites for their courses. Although very few graduates of these pr...
