Language-driven software development

“Language-driven software development” consists in applying com= puter language design and implementation techniques to build conv= entional software.  In this talk we will review two different language= -driven development approaches: domain-specific languages (DLSs), an= d language-oriented architectures (LOAs). The DSL approach focuses o= n the provision of languages specialized in different application aspects, = which are used by developers, and even by domain experts, during applicatio= n construction and maintenance. The LOA strategy, in its turn, conceives ap= plications themselves as coordinated collections of language processors, wh= ich can be developed using language implementation tools  (parser gene= rators, attribute grammar-based systems, etc.). In addition to presenting t= hese approaches, we will use case studies from the fields of knowledge-base= d systems, e-Learning, semi-structured data processing, and Digital Humanit= ies as illustrative examples.
