Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this paper, we propose a two-fold generic tool for compiler construction. First, it facilitates teaching compilers. Second, it constitutes a new approach for compiler construction. In addition, it enables a smooth transition from theory to practice and introduces a unified approach for the implementation of the different compiler phases. Such unification is achieved based on the representation of the compiler phases as a generic domain that is then mapped into a generic automaton. The generic automaton simulates the behavior of finite and shift-reduce automata, annotated by respective translation schemes. Thus, the tool acts as a scanner, a parser or as syntax directed translator. Without loss of generality, the proposed tool is used within a compiler-teaching framework. Comparisons with similar and well-known approaches have shown that our approach is pedagogical, conceptually simpler, requires less student efforts and more relevant to core curriculum.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
