Introduces the principles and techniques for compiling high-level programming languages to assembly code. Topics include parsing, instruction selection, register allocation, and compiling high-level features such as polymorphism, first-class functions, and objects. Students will build a complete compiler for a simple language. Recommended prereq., CSCI 3155 and CSCI 2400, or ECEN 2120 or ECEN 3350. Same as ECEN 5523, CSCI 4555, and ECEN 4553.
