Just about any book on compilers or language construction (SICP, EOPL,
etc.) will have a section about intermediate representation (IR) and
will cover ASTs and their use. But if you're specifically looking for
on-line resources:




Niklaus Wirth, "Compiler Construction", 3rd ed.,
http://www-old.oberon.ethz.ch/WirthPubl/CBEAll.pdf


Torben Mogensen, "Basics of Compiler Design",
http://www.diku.dk/hjemmesider/ansatte/torbenm/Basics/


P.D. Terry, "Compilers and Compiler Generators",
http://scifac.ru.ac.za/compilers/




"Engineering a Compiler". I'm not sure who to attribute this to,
there is no face page in the PDF. It is *not* Cooper & Torczon which
is available (but not free) as an ebook. It appears to be a fairly
decent intro text.

If somebody knows who authored this work, please tell me.


These are all intro to intermediate level compiler texts that should
get you started.

[The PDF appears to be a copy of the unedited MSS for Cooper and Torczon, "Engineering
a Compiler", Morgan Kaufman, 2004. I found it by typing the first sentence of Chapter 1
into Google Books. They would doubtless prefer that people buy a legal copy of the
book, which is better than the MSS due to the excellent editors at Morgan Kaufman.
