- | =====Foundations of Data Description Languages===== | ||
- | |||
- | Recently, several small "domain specific languages" have been proposed | ||
- | to facilitate programming with ad hoc data (including PADS, | ||
- | DATASCRIPT,PACKETTYPES, Microsoft M Grammar). Ad hoc data is data | ||
- | other than data in well-behaved relational or XML formats. | ||
- | |||
- | The above languages take as input a description of the data format to | ||
- | be dealt with, and automatically generate a large number of software | ||
- | tools (parsers, serializers, data transformers, error recognition, | ||
- | ...) to process the ad-hoc data. | ||
- | |||
- | The goal of this thesis is to study the programming language-theory | ||
- | foundations behind these languages, their commonalities and their | ||
- | differences. If possible, suggestions for further extensions to the | ||
- | languages should be formulated. | ||
