	Software Builds - http://www.codefast.com/index.html 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.
	Distcc, A Fast Free Distributed Compiler - http://distcc.samba.org/doc/lca2004/distcc-lca-2004.html 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.
	Ask Mr. Make - http://www.electric-cloud.com/resources/mrmake.php Articles on makefile optimization, build management and acceleration, etc.
	Recursive vs Non-recursive Makefile Architecture Speed Comparison - http://kolpackov.net/projects/build/benchmark.xhtml 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.
	Makefile Setup for Java - http://geosoft.no/javamake.html 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.

	Compare and Contrast Lucent Nmake and GNU Make - http://www.bell-labs.com/project/nmake/faq/gmake.html Lucent FAQ - Summarizes the function and typical syntax of many make features, using a convenient table format.
	Make - A Program For Maintaining Computer Programs - http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.39.7058 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 - http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.37.2173 Schönherr and Wolff 1998 - A set of makefile dependency generator tools for working with files written in Knuth's Literate Programming style.
	The Fourth Generation Make - http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.25.6629 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.
	An Automatic Make Facility - http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.60.5968 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.

	Parallel and Distributed Compilations in Loosely-Coupled Systems - A Case Study - http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.45.1398 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 - http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.22.7432 Lih and Zadok 1994 - Reports design issues and results of modifying GNU Make to do distributed makes using the Oakridge PVM Parallel Virtual Machine.
	A Case For Make - http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/old/fowler90case.html Fowler 1990 - Explains many old-make limitations and new-make (Nmake) features including procedure rules, accuracy mechanisms, viewpathing, and semaphores for blocking unwanted parallelism.
	Recursive Make Considered Harmful - http://members.canb.auug.org.au/~millerp/rmch/recu-make-cons-harm.html Miller 1997 - An argument against using recursive make techniques in the presence of cyclic dependencies among project subdirectories.
