CS 342 Lecture -*- Outline -*-

* separate compilation
** compilation
	translates FORTRAN into relocatable object code
		(machine code with a symbol table that allows absolute
		addresses to be filled in later)
** optimization
	there are many object codes that produce same behavior,
	some of these will be more (time) efficient than others.
	(benefit of abstraction)
** linking
	resolve external references in object files to library routines
** loading
	place object code in memory, filling in absolute addresses
	execution: jump to start of program (run program)
