Abstract

The syntactic error recovery of automatically generated recognizers is considered with two related systems for automatically generating syntactic error recovery presented, one for a Floyd production language recognizer, the other for a recursive descent recognizer. The two systems have been implemented for a small language consisting of a subset of ALGOL. When compared with each other and with a commercial ALGOL compiler, the results indicate that automatically generated syntactic error recovery can exceed the performance of reasonable hand-coded error recovery.
