Notable design patterns for domain-specific languages

by: D. Spinellis
Journal of Systems and Software, Vol. 56, No. 1. (1 February 2001), pp. 91-99.

X Abstract

The realisation of domain-specific languages ( s) differs in fundamental ways from that of traditional programming languages. We describe eight recurring patterns that we have identified as being used for design and implementation. Existing languages can be extended, restricted, partially used, or become hosts for s. Simple s can be implemented by lexical processing. In addition, s can be used to create front-ends to existing systems or to express complicated data structures. Finally, s can be combined using process pipelines. The patterns described form a pattern language that can be used as a building block for a systematic view of the software development process involving s.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
