References to object oriented design of compilers?

I have been doing some work involving the implementation of a language
translator. I have adopted an object-oriented design in which the program
is represented as an abstract syntax tree in which nodes "translate
themselves".


So far this idea has been applied only narrowly (although a couple of
other projects at the U. of Texas are adopting my design). I am
interested in considering the idea in a more general setting.


Does anybody know of any publications on the subject of object-oriented
design applied to compilers? Please note that I am not looking for
compilers for object-oriented languages.


Email response might be best. I'll summarize if there is a significant
response.


Thanks in advance.
