Repository files navigation

NOTE: This is the 2015/2016 coursework, left here for interest's sake. 2016/2017 will be in a different repo, and is slightly different.

Overview

The main repository is at: https://github.com/LangProc/langproc_2015_cw.

The language processors coursework is to build a C compiler from the C90 language to MIPS assembly. It should be possible to assemble and link the output using existing tools and execute it on a MIPS CPU.

There are three intermediate milestones, which are assessed at a low weight and designed to encourage familiarity with aspects of language processors and implementation. There is a more detailed discussion of the rationale here.

The marks break-down is:

1 - Tokeniser : 10%, Due 12th Feb

2 - Parser : 20%, Due 26th Feb

3 - Code Generation : 20%, Due Thu 17th March (Updated again)

4 - Compiler : 50%, Due Friday 25th March

The overall timeline is shown below:

Timeline

It is not a good idea to assume that the final two weeks are sufficient time to complete a compiler.

Environment

The target environment is the lab Ubuntu setup. You can make use of any tools available there-in.

Build and filenames

Your submission should contain a top-level makefile that can build the various components, including your compiler. All outputs will be built into the bin/ directory. Apart from that, you have complete freedom to do whatever you want with directories and files.
