Which are the factors that decide number of passes for a compiler?

There are many. I have encountered compilers with as few as 2 passes to as many as 63 passes (this number of passes were necessitated by the very tiny magnetic core memory of the machine). I even encountered a compiler that the programmer that wrote it claimed was a 1 pass compiler, but on detailed examination all he had done was "piped" the output of pass 1 to the input of pass 2 (instead of writing it to an intermediate file between passes), so it was actually a 2 pass compiler.
I have also encountered a language (the US Navy's CMS-2) that has both syntactic and semantic ambiguities that made it impossible to write a compiler (no matter how many passes) that could reliably compile all code given to it, to do what the programmer intended.

What is the process of deep packet inspection?
Deep packet inspection is a type of computer network packet filtering. Deep packet inspection examines the data part of a package as it passes through an inspection point. Factors such as viruses, spam, and intrusions determine whether the packet passes or needs to be rerouted to a different destination. Sometimes the packet is rerouted for the collection of statistical purposes.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through Earths?
A partial lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon partly passes through the Earth's umbra. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon fully passes through the Earth's umbra. When the Moon only passes through the penumbra, there is only a subtle darkening of its surface. The umbra and the penumbra are parts of the Earth's shadow.

What is the explanation for the features of repeaters?
Signal strength diminishes over distance. A repeater boosts signal strength and passes it on.
How can you reduce no of passes in compiler?
In order to reduce the number of passes in a compiler, all symbols have to be fully declared and defined before they are referenced. That's assuming, of course, that you would want to write a single pass compiler to start with. Most current compilers are very good at what they do, and reinventing the wheel, other than for a computer science class, is meaningless.
What is passed on?
A single pass compiler also known as a one-pass compiler is a compiler that only passes through the code once and doesn't go back. They're faster than a multi-pass compiler but they are very limited in what they can do.
Why single pass compiler are faster than multi pass compiler?
A one-pass compiler is a compiler that passes through the source code of each compilation unit only once. A multi-pass compiler is a type of compiler that processes the source code or abstract syntax tree of a program several times.A one-pass compilers is faster than multi-pass compilersA one-pass compiler has limited scope of passes but multi-pass compiler has wide scope of passes.Multi-pass compilers are sometimes called wide compilers where as one-pass compiler are sometimes called narrow compiler.Many programming languages cannot be represented with a single pass compilers, for example Pascal can be implemented with a single pass compiler where as languages like Java require a multi-pass compiler.

What is pass in compiler design?
There are two types of compilers one-pass and multi-pass. Pass means that some of inner operations are repeated several times. If we have one-pass compiler and this source code: i++; i++; i++; Inside compiler it would generate: i = i + 1; i = i + 1; i = i + 1; If compiler would be two-pass: i = i + 3; The more passes compiler has, the better optimized code it can generate, but it is slower because it must repeat some steps again.
