Description
Prepare to conquer the most challenging compiler design questions with this specialized course, “Advanced Compiler Design: Multiple Choice Questions 2025.” Designed explicitly for technical interview preparation and advanced academic mastery, this course drills you on the sophisticated concepts that power modern optimizing compilers like LLVM and GCC. We move far beyond the basics of parsing, diving deep into the Middle End (Optimization) and Back End (Code Generation), which are the core areas of modern compiler engineering interviews. You will master Advanced Intermediate Representations (IRs), with a dedicated focus on the properties, construction, and destruction of the Static Single Assignment (SSA) form, including the pivotal role of $phi$-functions. A significant portion of the course is devoted to Global Program Analysis, teaching you how to formally apply and calculate results for essential Dataflow Analysis problems such as Reaching Definitions, Live Variable Analysis, and Available Expressions using Control Flow Graphs (CFGs) and iterative algorithms. Furthermore, you will gain expertise in machine-independent optimizations, particularly Advanced Loop Optimizations like Loop Invariant Code Motion (LICM) and Strength Reduction, and machine-dependent phases, including Optimal Instruction Selection and the crucial Graph Coloring Algorithm used for Global Register Allocation. Each topic is presented via rigorously designed multiple-choice questions, mirroring the style and complexity of questions asked by top tech companies. By the end, you will not only be able to answer advanced compiler design questions but also possess a practical, deep understanding of system-level performance optimization, making you an ideal candidate for roles in language runtime development and system programming.
