- Ask Mr. Make - Articles on makefile optimization, build management and acceleration, etc.
- An Automatic Make Facility - Holyer and Pehlivan 2000 + Program uses no makefile. It records manually+issued compilation commands the first time round, then rebuilds programs using recorded command traces.
- A Case For Make - Fowler 1990 + Explains many old+make limitations and new+make (Nmake) features including procedure rules, accuracy mechanisms, viewpathing, and semaphores for blocking unwanted parallelism.
- Compare and Contrast Lucent Nmake and GNU Make - Lucent FAQ + Summarizes the function and typical syntax of many make features, using a convenient table format.
- Distcc, A Fast Free Distributed Compiler - Pool 2003 + This paper describes a distributed compiler for C-C++ programs, and provides a good discussion of key issues related to parallel, distributed software builds.
- The Fourth Generation Make - Fowler 1985 + A new make tool with support for CPP, dependency generation, compiled makefiles, parallel execution, pathname parsing operators, and a powerful metalanguage for builtin rules.
- Make + A Program For Maintaining Computer Programs - Feldman 1979 + The original make paper, including makefile syntax, implicit rules, double colon targets, macros, VPATH macro, and the usual cleanup and install targets.
- Make It + Generating and Maintaining Makefiles Automatically - Schönherr and Wolff 1998 + A set of makefile dependency generator tools for working with files written in Knuth's Literate Programming style.
- Makefile Setup for Java - Geosoft + A GNU Make and shell script setup for Java. Features dependency scanning, class files, JAR archives, JNI interfaces, RMI stub and skeletons, and Javadoc.
- Parallel and Distributed Compilations in Loosely+Coupled Systems + A Case Study - Baalbergen 1986 + Distributing machine specific compilation phases among machines with a distributed make program is about 3.5 times faster.
- PGMAKE: A Portable Distributed Make System - Lih and Zadok 1994 + Reports design issues and results of modifying GNU Make to do distributed makes using the Oakridge PVM Parallel Virtual Machine.
- Recursive Make Considered Harmful - Miller 1997 + An argument against using recursive make techniques in the presence of cyclic dependencies among project subdirectories.
- Recursive vs Non+recursive Makefile Architecture Speed Comparison - Kolpackov 2004 + This document compares recursive and non+recursive build systems (GNU make +j N) for building 277 software files in 15 directories using various combinations of parallelism and hardware. Non+recursive builds are faster.
- Software Builds - Codefast + Contains many articles on software build topics such as problem scope, stakeholder design viewpoints, directory structures, architecture models, makefile generator tools and software build methods.
