Overview

Lab experiments with respect to the course Compiler Design have been carried out in this laboratory. Students work on various aspects of compiler construction including lexical analysis, parsing, semantic analysis, and code generation.

Key Experiments

Create programs to recognize various strings given in the form of regular expression
Write program in C programming language to create lexical analyzer
Install "Lex" tool for generating Lexical Analyzer
Create programs in "Lex" for various pattern matching tasks
Create a program for simulating the task of a Recursive Descent Parser
Creation of YACC (Parser Generator) source programs

Student Projects

Apart from the standard experiments, students are encouraged to take up project works which are relevant in the IT industry.

Sample Projects

Mini-compiler for a subset of C language
Syntax-directed translation schemes
Intermediate code generation
Code optimization techniques

Industry Relevance

Static code analysis tools
Domain-specific language development
Compiler optimizations for modern architectures
