Inhalt This seminar will provide fundamentals of interpretation and compilation of programming languages with a strong emphasis on practical projects. It will include a selection of topics among the followings: program representations and transformations, the difference between compilation and interpretation, a taxonomy of programming languages, Turing-completeness and the tower of interpreters, computation models, execution semantics, programming language concepts, meta-programming. We will look at applications of the concepts with a special emphasis on secure execution of programs with and without the use of Trusted Execution Environments, which will be relevant for doing Bachelor and Master projects related to the ongoing Survivable Computing project of the Computer Networks Group.
Lernziele The main objective of the course is to successfully implement an interpreter and compiler for a simplified but representative subset of the Python programming language. This subset will support variables, conditionals, loops, functions, and other functionalities according to student interests. Students that succeed will obtain a concrete understanding of how high-level programming languages are executed on lower-level hardware. The techniques covered are also fundamental for more advanced automated program analysis and transformations, such as finding bugs and vulnerabilities in source code, increasing performance with optimizing compilers, and increasing the security of executables.
Literatur The first 9 lectures will cover Chapters 1,2,5,6 and 8 of the following textbook: https://github.com/IUCompilerCourse/Essentials-of-Compilation

The rest of the lectures will cover advanced topics according to students interests, among other chapters of the book and papers.

Bemerkungen Implementation and presentations will be done in teams of 2-3 students. Due to time limitations for presentations, a maximum of 24 students may register for the seminar, first-come first-served.
