We discuss the nuts and bolts of industrial large-scale software modification projects. These
projects become necessary when system owners of deployed systems hit architectural …

Some data types are so simple that they tend to be reimplemented over and over again. This
is certainly true for terms, tree-like data structures that can represent prefix formulae, syntax …

In meta programming with concrete object syntax, object-level programs are composed from
fragments written in concrete syntax. The use of small program fragments in such quotations …

This unique guide book explains and teaches the concept of trustworthy compilers based on
50+ years of worldwide experience in the area of compilers, and on the author's own 30+ …

Extending a language by embedding within it another language presents significant parsing
challenges, especially if the embedding is recursive. The composite grammar is likely to be …

Before consuming this manuscript the reader should know that I owe gratitude to many

Modular grammatical formalisms provide an essential step towards improved grammar
engineering practices. However, as we depart from traditional deterministic models, some …

Automated program transformation holds promise for a variety of software life cycle
endeavors, particularly where the size of legacy systems makes manual code analysis, re …

We propose an enhancement to current parsing and transformation systems by leveraging
the expressive power of Boolean grammars, a generalization of context-free grammars that …
