Title: Translator writing systems
Author: Feldman, Jerome A.
Author: Gries, David

Abstract: Compiler writing has long been a glamour field within
programming and has a well developed folklore. More recently,
the attention of researchers has been directed toward various
schemes for automating different parts of the compiler
writer's task. This paper contains neither a history of nor
an introduction to these developments; the references at the
end of this section provide what introductory material there
is in the literature. Although we will make comparisons
between individual systems and between various techniques,
this is certainly not a consumer's guide to translator
writing systems. Our intended purpose is to carefully
consider the existing work in an attempt to form a unified
scientific basis for future research.
