The focus of product development is a single gateway instance whereas the focus of domain engineering is on all related systems within a target domain. Perl hackers know that programming is a creative endeavour. Instead of storing this program as syntax in a text file it is stored as a model in a repository. The GDMs, the requirements models, the application architecture models and UMMs are all internally represented in TLG which acts as the transformation engine. Much of the work of human programmers is directed at efficiency; automatically producing efficient code can be a significant problem. Ideally, OOP allows reuse of methods defined for general classes of objects; when it works, one gets those programs free. The base of the process is the ABA user interface.

Panuška Charles University, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Prague, Czech Republic. Abstract. New approaches to software development have evolved recently. Among these belong not only development tools like IDEs, debuggers and Visual modelling tools but also new, modern1 styles of programming including Language Oriented Programming, Aspect Oriented Programming, Generative Programming, Generic Programming, Intentional Programming and others. This paper brings an overview of several methods that may help in software development. Introduction An amazing progress in software algorithms, hardware, GUI and group of problems we can solve has been made within last 40 years. Unfortunately, the same we cannot say about the way the software is actually made. The source code of programs has not changed and editors we use to edit, create and maintain computer programs still work with the source code mainly as with a piece of text. This is not the only relic remaining in current software development procedures. Software development is one of human tasks where most of the job must be done by people. Human resources belong to the most expensive, most limiting and most unreliable ones. People tend to make more mistakes than any kind of automatic machines. They must be trained, may strike, may get ill, need holidays, lunch breaks, baby breaks, etc. Universities can not produce an unlimited number of software engineers. Even if the number of technical colleges were doubled, it would not lead in double amount of high-quality programmers.

  • Bibliography on Transformation Systems (PDF Format)
    Transformation Technology Bibliography, 1998 Ira Baxter Semantic Designs 12636 Research Blvd, Suite C214 Austin, Texas 78759 [email protected] The fundamental ideas for transformation systems are: domains where/when does one define a notation for a problem area; semantics how the meaning of a notation is defined; implementation what it means for one spec fragment to “implement” another; and control how to choose among possible implementations. The following references describe various ways of implementing one or more of the above ideas. Unfortunately, there aren't any easy, obviously good articles or books on the topic, and there is a lot of exotic technology. I recommend: the Agresti book (a number of short papers) for overview, the Feather survey paper for conciseness and broadness. These are the minimum required reading to get a sense of the field. The Partsch book is excellent for a view of transformational development using wide spectrum languages, but fails to address domains and control. The Turski book is very good for some key theory, but you have to be determined to wade through it. Bibliography [AGRESTI86] What are the New Paradigms?, William W.

  • Components and Generative Programming
    Components and Generative Programming Krzysztof Czarnecki1 and Ulrich W. Eisenecker2 1DaimlerChrysler AG Research and Technology, Ulm, Germany [email protected] 2University of Applied Sciences Heidelberg, Germany [email protected] Abstract. This paper is about a paradigm shift from the current practice of manually searching for and adapting components and their manual assembly to Generative Programming, which is the automatic selection and assembly of components on demand. First, we argue that the current OO technology does not support reuse and configurability in an effective way. Then we show how a system family approach can aid in defining reusable components. Finally, we describe how to automate the assembly of components based on configuration knowledge. We compare this paradigm shift to the introduction of interchangeable parts and automated assembly lines in the automobile industry. We also illustrate the steps necessary to develop a product line using a simple example of a car product line. We present the feature model of the product line, develop a layered architecture for it, and automate the assembly of the components using a generator. We also discuss some design issues, applicability of the approach, and future development. 1 From Handcrafting to an Automated Assembly Line This paper is about a paradigm shift from the current practice of manually searching for and adapting components and their manual assembly to Generative Programming, which is the automatic selection and assembly of components on demand. This paradigm shift takes two steps. First, we need to move our focus from engineering single systems to engineering families of systems—this will allow us to come up with the “right” implementation components.

  • Reliable and Automatic Composition of Language Extensions to C
    Reliable and Automatic Composition of Language Extensions to C The ableC Extensible Language Framework 98 TED KAMINSKI, University of Minnesota, USA LUCAS KRAMER, University of Minnesota, USA TRAVIS CARLSON, University of Minnesota, USA ERIC VAN WYK, University of Minnesota, USA This paper describes an extensible language framework, ableC, that allows programmers to import new, domain-specific, independently-developed language features into their programming language, in thiscase C. Most importantly, this framework ensures that the language extensions will automatically compose to form a working translator that does not terminate abnormally. This is possible due to two modular analyses that extension developers can apply to their language extension to check its composability. Specifically, these ensure that the composed concrete syntax specification is non-ambiguous and the composed attribute grammar specifying the semantics is well-defined. This assurance and the expressiveness of the supported extensions is a distinguishing characteristic of the approach. The paper describes a number of techniques for specifying a host language, in this case C at the C11 standard, to make it more amenable to language extension. These include techniques that make additional extensions pass these modular analyses, refactorings of the host language to support a wider range of extensions, and the addition of semantic extension points to support, for example, operator overloading and non-local code transformations. CCS Concepts: • Software and its engineering → Extensible languages; Translator writing systems and compiler generators; Additional Key Words and Phrases: extensible compiler frameworks, domain specific languages, language composition, attribute grammars, context-aware scanning ACM Reference Format: Ted Kaminski, Lucas Kramer, Travis Carlson, and Eric Van Wyk.

  • Notes on Postmodern Programming
    Notes on Postmodern Programming James Noble, Robert Biddle Computer Science, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. robert,kjx ¡ @mcs.vuw.ac.nz March 23, 2002 0 Manifesto The ultimate goal of all computer science is the program. The performance of programs was once the noblest function of computer science, and computer science was indispensable to great programs. Today, programming and com- puter science exist in complacent isolation, and can only be rescued by the conscious co-operation and collaboration of all programmers. The universities were unable to produce this unity; and how indeed, should they have done so, since creativity cannot be taught? Designers, programmers and engineers must once again come to know and comprehend the composite character of a program, both as an entity and in terms of its various parts. Then their work will be filled with that true software spirit which, as “theory of computing”, it has lost. Universities must return to programming. The worlds of the formal methods and algorithm analysis, consisting only of logic and mathematics, must become once again a world in which things are built. If the young person who rejoices in creative activity now begins his career as in the older days by learning to program, then the unproductive “scientist” will no longer be condemned to inadequate science, for their skills will be preserved for the programming in which they can achieve great things. Designers, programmers, engineers, we must all return to programming! There is no essential difference between the computer scientist and the pro- grammer. The computer scientist is an exalted programmer.

    A CASE FOR ARCHITECTURAL COMPUTING Computing Using Architectural Constructs GANAPATHY MAHALINGAM North Dakota State University, U.S.A. [email protected] Abstract. This paper is about the potential of architectural computing. Architectural computing is defined as computing that is done with computational structures that are based on architectural forms. An analysis of works of architecture reveals the embedded forms in the works of architecture. A uniform, connections-based representation of these architectural forms allows us to derive computational structures from them. These computational structures form the basis of architectural computing. In this paper a case is made for architectural computing, ideas are provided for how it could be done, and the benefits of architectural computing are briefly explored. Keywords. Architectural computing: architectural programming language; intentional programming; connections-based paradigm. 1. Introduction Researchers in the field of computer-aided architectural design have pondered the computability of design for the past 3 to 4 decades. While this inquiry may seem moot now, given that most design activities can be performed on the computer using various pieces of software, it has masked what can now be considered as a unique form of computing, architectural computing. Claude Shannon (1937), in his influential master’s thesis, A Symbolic Analysis of Relay and Switching Circuits, literally founded modern digital computing by integrating Boolean algebra, binary arithmetic and electromechanical relays into an effective device to perform computations. What if we now recast the inherent devices of architecture as effective machines? Can we build architectural computers from them? What would these computers do and what would be their unique characteristics? What if we derive an architectural programming language from the operations of architectural design? Not too long ago, Charles Simonyi (1995) hailed the death of computer languages and the birth of intentional programming.

Black b aSoftware Composition Group, University of Bern, Switzerland bOGI School of Science & Engineering, Oregon Health & Science University, USA Abstract Much of the elegance and power of Smalltalk comes from its programming environment and tools. First introduced more than 20 years ago, the Smalltalk browser enables programmers to “home in” on particular methods using a hierarchy of manually-defined classifications. By its nature, this clas- sification scheme says a lot about the desired state of the code, but little about the actual state of the code as it is being developed. We have extended the Smalltalk browser with dynamically computed virtual categories that dramatically improve the browser’s support for incremental programming. We illustrate these improvements by example, and describe the algorithms used to compute the virtual categories efficiently.

Keywords: programming environments, gender, computer science education, motivation, storytelling, Alice, Stencils Abstract Women are currently under-represented in computer science. Increasing the numbers of female students who pursue computer science has the potential both to improve the technology we create by diversifying the viewpoints that influence technology design and to help fill projected computing jobs. Numerous studies have found that girls begin to turn away from math and science related disciplines, including computer science, during middle school. By the end of eighth grade, twice as many boys as girls are interested in pursuing science, engineering, or technology based careers. In this thesis, I describe Storytelling Alice, a programming environment that gives middle school girls a positive first experience with computer programming.

    Generative Programming Principles and Techniques of Software Engineering Based on Automated Configuration and Fragment-Based Component Models by Dipl.-Inf. Krzysztof Czarnecki A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doktor-Ingenieur Department of Computer Science and Automation Technical University of Ilmenau October 1998 Supervisory Committee: Universitair Hoofd Docent Dr. Mehmet Aksit, University of Twente, The Netherlands Prof. Dr. Ulrich W. Eisenecker, FH Heidelberg, Germany Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Dietrich Reschke (Chairperson of Supervisory Committee), TU Ilmenau, Germany Oral defense held on August 9, 1999 iii Abstract Current object-oriented (OO) and component technologies suffer from several problems such as the lack of analysis and design methods for the development for reuse, lack of effective techniques for dealing with many variants of components, loss of design knowledge due to the semantic gap between domain abstractions and programming language features, and runtime performance penalties for clean and flexible design. This thesis proposes Generative Programming (GP) as a comprehensive software development paradigm to achieving high intentionality, reusability, and adaptability without the need to compromise the runtime performance and computing resources of the produced software. In the area of analysis and design for GP, we investigate Domain Engineering (DE) methods and their integration with OO analysis and design (OOA/D) methods. The main difference between DE methods and OOA/D methods is that the first are geared towards developing whole families of systems while the latter focus on developing single systems. We identify feature modeling as the main contribution of DE to OOA/D. Feature models represent the configurability aspect of reusable software at an abstract level, i.e.

  • Aspect-Oriented Programming Is Quantification and Oblivi- Ousness
    Aspect-Oriented Programming is Quantification and Oblivi- ousness Robert E. Filman Daniel P. Friedman RIACS Computer Science Department NASA Ames Research Center Indiana University Moffett Field, CA 94035 Bloomington, IN 47405 [email protected] [email protected] Abstract This paper proposes that the distinguishing characteristic of Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) systems is that they allow programming by making quantified programmatic assertions over programs written by programmers oblivious to such assertions. Thus, AOP systems can be analyzed with respect to three critical dimensions: the kinds of quantifications allowed, the nature I,,,._. the actions that can be asserted, and the mechanism for combining base-level actions with as- serted actions. Consequences of this perspective are the recognition that certain systems are not AOP and that some mechanisms are expressive enough to allow programming an AOP system within them. A corollary is that while AOP can be applied to Object-Oriented Programming, it is an independent concept applicable to other programming styles. 1. Introduction This paper is about Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) qua programming language. We are interested in determining what makes a language AOP. This work was prompted by a question from Tzilla Elrad, who asked whether event-based, publish and subscribe (EBPS) (for example, [9]) is AOP. After all, in a publish-and-subscribe system, separate concerns can be realized by subscribing to the events of interest to those concerns. In thinking about that question, we have come to the belief that two properties, quantification and obliviousness, are necessary for Aop.t Understanding these relationships clarifies the variety of possible AOP languages.

Box 80.089 3508 TB Utrecht The Netherlands Construct Your Own Favorite Programming Language∗ S. Doaitse Swierstra December 3, 2009 Advanced PL technology is a secret weapon in enterprise computing Chet Murthy, POPL 2007 Abstract We investigate how the need for evermore programming languages arises, and how to fulfill this need. We show how the gap between building a library using an existing language and constructing a completely new language narrows. In doing so we discuss a few of the past and current research results from the Software Technology group at Utrecht University. 1 Introduction Almost as long as we have computers we have programming languages; starting from FORTRAN in 1958 a whole genealogy of language designs can be constructed1 and one may wonder why computer scientists are not making up their mind, once and for all, and define the definite language which unifies all good ideas thought up thus far. In this paper we both investigate where this urge for ever new languages stems from, and show how we might slow down the speed at which new languages are being proposed, defined, implemented, taught, and learned, only to be finally discarded and replaced by successors. We start out by observing that a new language in principle does not add anything to what we can express already (e.g., using plain machine code); it may only, albeit dra- matically, improve the ease with which we can express ourselves.
