One of the finest computer science textbooks I've ever read, and I've read hundreds. Muchnick is clearly a demigod who's made a fine study of humans so that he might walk amongst us, for reasons unknown to anyone but him. This has reignited my passion for compiler design, and I absolutely can't wait until CS6241 next semester with Santosh Pande, himself reputed to be a Great Master well worth understudy.

Strong on the theory and full of references to the contemporary literature. But contemporary here was quite a long time ago. So there's plenty on now obsolete RISC architectures, but nothing on the latest Intel and ARM ones, specifically concerning recent developments like out of order execution.
The ICAN notation is a bit annoying. It's a peculiar mix of script-like control flow ("do ... od"), also with lots of APL-like symbols. Generally I just skimmed the algorithms expressed in ICAN. ...more

Strong fundamentals, however there’s plenty obsolete RISC architecture.
