Preface
Dijkstra once wrote that computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes. Despite the many incredible advances in computer science from times that predate practical mechanical computing, there is still a myriad of fundamental questions in understanding the interface between computers and the rest of the world. Why is it still hard to mechanize many tasks that seem to be fundamentally routine, even as we see ever-increasing capacity for raw mechanical computing? The disciplined study of domain-specific languages (DSLs) is an emerging area in computer science, and is one which has the potential to revolutionize the field, and bring us closer to answering this question. DSLs are formalisms that have four general characteristics. – They rela
