LDTA 2012 - 12th Workshop on Language Descriptions, Tools and Applications (LDTA)

12th Workshop on Language Descriptions, Tools and Applications (LDTA)

The LDTA workshops bring together researchers interested in the field of formal language definitions and language technologies, with an emphasis on tools developed for or with these language definitions. Several specification formalisms like attribute grammars, action semantics, operational semantics, term rewriting, and algebraic approaches have been developed over the years. Of specific interest are the formal analysis of language specifications, and the automatic generation of language processing tools from such specifications. These tools typically perform some sort of program analysis, transformation, or generation. Also of interest are applications of such tools in domains including, but not limited to, modelling languages, re-engineering and re-factoring, aspect-oriented and domain-specific languages, XML processing, visualisation and graph transformation.
