I plan to teach a course about compilers this autumn. The students have at
this time already had a basic compiler course, based on part of "The
Dragon Book". I want the focus to be primarily on code generation and
optimization, including register allocation and instruction scheduling.


Are there any books that cover these subjects better than the Dragon Book?
I would like to avoid using conference and journal paers for the entire
course, but would accept having to supplement a book with a few such. I
would prefer the book to be largely processor independent.


Any suggestions are welcome.
