[PDF][PDF] A syntax directed compiler for ALGOL 60

ET Irons - Communications of the ACM, 1961 - dl.acm.org
Although one generally thinks of a compiler as a program for a computer which translates
some object language into a target language, in fact this program also serves to define the
object language in terms of the target language. In early compilers, these two functions are
fused inextricably in the machine language program which is the compiler. This fusion
makes incorporation into the compiler of extensions or modifications to the object language
extremely difficult. This paper describes a compiling system which essentially separates the …
