Software language engineering (SLE '12)

Reflections on Courses for SLE (Software Language Engineering)

Software Language Engineering (SLE) has emerged as a field in computer science research and software engineering, but it has yet to become entrenched as part of the standard curriculum at universities. Many places have a compiler construction (CC) course and a programming languages (PL) course, but these are not aimed at training students in typical SLE matters such as DSL design and implementa...

Language-based software engineering

The three most important things in software development: notation, notation, notation. Techniques for developing reliable, error free (and these days also secure) software have been a subject of research for a long time. A number of software engineering frameworks have been proposed, from the waterfall model [1] to aspect oriented frameworks [2]. In this short paper we present a language-based ...

When Systems Engineering Meets Software Language Engineering

Multiple concerns Multiple viewpoints Multiple domains of expertise => Needs to express them! In a meaningful way for experts • Not everybody reads C code fluently…

Software architecture for language engineering

This thesis defines the boundaries of Software Architecture for Language Engineering (SALE), an area formed by the intersection of human language computation and software engineering. SALE covers all areas of the provision of infrastructural systems to support research and development of language processing software. In order to demonstrate the theory developed in relation to SALE, we present t...
