! Aware: Useful Tech & Info: Specific Programming Languages

- Constructing analysis and modification tools for software assets is laborious because you first need to implement the underlying parser for the software's specific programming language. These implementations are generally not in the public domain. So, parser development for any of the 500+ languages in use today implies a major up-front investment. The authors propose a solution that will work for virtually all languages: the rapid development of renovation parsers by stealing the grammars. They also share lessons learned.

Cobol for the Next Millennium ( Don Schricker ; IEEE Software Magazine 2000-03)

- For four decades, Cobol has been the most successful business programming language. It has maintained this reputation, partly by evolving to address changing technology and user needs. This article discusses the new developments featured in Cobol 2002.

Cobol in an Object-Oriented World: A Learning Perspective ( Bill C. Hardgrave, E. Reed Doke ; IEEE Software Magazine 2000-03)

- Although recent Internet, Java, and OO trends threaten Cobol's dominance, industry will continue to need the language and its programmers for development as well as for maintenance�especially once OO Cobol becomes an official standard. Thus, Cobol training remains a priority. The authors had good results using OO Cobol to teach the object-oriented paradigm.

The Real Creators of Cobol ( Jean E. Sammet ; IEEE Software Magazine 2000-03)

- The author presents a few of the highlights of early Cobol development, in particular dispelling the myth that Grace Hopper created it. The article outlines the creation and mission of the committee that developed the language in 1959 and a few of the major inputs and influences on Cobol's initial development.

The OPEN Framework for Enhancing Productivity ( Brian Henderson-Sellers ; IEEE Software Magazine 2000-03)

- The use of a business-focused development process can greatly facilitate producing and maintaining Cobol programs. OPEN (object-oriented process, environment, and notation) is the most appropriate process for object-oriented and component-based development in a business environment. Its underpinning metamodel and framework make OPEN valuable for both development and maintenance.

The Case for Continued Cobol Education ( Donald Carr, Ronald J. Kizior ; IEEE Software Magazine 2000-03)

- In surveying business and academic leaders, the authors found that almost 95% of academic respondents and 90% of IS managers still want IS curricula to offer Cobol instruction. They further found that nearly 90% of IS managers want both object-oriented and Web-based features integrated into Cobol instruction in college curricula.

An Empirical Comparison of Seven Programming Languages ( Lutz Prechelt ; IEEE Computer Magazine 2000-010)

- Often heated, debates about different programming languages remain inconclusive. The author takes a first step toward providing hard data about the relative effectiveness of C, C++, Java, Perl, Python, Rexx, and Tcl.

Cobol: A Historic Past, A Vital Future? ( Robert L. Glass ; IEEE Software Magazine 1999-07)

Do You Trust Your Compiler? ( James M. Boyle, R. Daniel Resler, Victor L. Winter ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1999-05)

- Correctness-preserving transformations can guarantee that a program continues to do what it should when it is converted from specification to assembly code. Constructing a trusted compiler is one of many potential applications.

A Revisionist Account of Early Language Development ( Maurice V. Wilkes ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1998-04)

- The practicality of Fortran and the elegance of Algol defined a fault line running through programming-language study that we are just now beginning to bridge.

Design Patterns and Language Design ( Joseph (Yossi) Gil, David H. Lorenz ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1998-03)

Outlook on Language Research and Practice ( Daniel E. Cooke ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1998-02)

Cobol: Perception and Reality ( Edmund C. Arranga, Frank P. Coyle ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1997-03)

Real Programmers Do Use Delphi ( Ian Gorton ; IEEE Software Magazine 1995-11)

- About 25 years ago, when the company I worked for was established as a 100-percent subsidiary, our parent mainframer passed onto us the maintenance of its obsolete operating systems. These programs were poorly structured and came with almost no documentation. We struggled to improve our situation with tools and reverse engineering, but despite our best efforts and the loss of many good people to burnout, we never completely unraveled the code. Ian Gorton describes a career journey that began with a similar situation. But Gorton survived and moved on to work with and observe �real� programming practices in several companies. He describes how the �real�-programming profession evolved and expanded into the mainstream of the software industry. � Tomoo Matsubara

Multibox Parsers: No More Hand-written Lexical Analyzers ( Lev J. Dyadkin ; IEEE Software Magazine 1995-09)

- Most parser generators do not work with lexically complex languages like Fortran. Compiler writers end up writing lexers by hand. To deal with this complexity, the author suggests generating a parser that uses a series of boxes � like a mechanical caterpillar � instead of just two.

Automatic Generation of Visual Programming Environments ( Gennaro Costagliola, Genoveffa Tortora, Sergio Orefice, Andrea De Lucia ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1995-03)

- A new system uses positional grammars to automatically generate visual programmingenvironments. The result is an efficient editor and compiler for the defined visual language.

Scaling Up Visual Programming Languages ( Margaret M. Burnett, Marla J. Baker, Carisa Bohus, Paul Carlson, Sherry Yang, Pieter van Zee ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1995-03)

- The directness, immediacy, and simplicity of visual programming languages are appealing. The question is, can VPLs be effectively applied to large-scale programming problems while retaining these characteristics?

Finding Solutions Through Pattern Languages ( ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1994-12)

- Considers how interest in patterns and pattern languages has been on the upswing, fueled by the realization among software developers that they must simplify the process of building increasingly large and complex systems. Patterns are forms for describing architectural constructs in a manner that emphasizes these constructs' potential for reuse. They provide a way to document and share design expertise in an application-independent fashion. As evidence of this growing interest, early in August more than 70 software practitioners gathered to discuss patterns and pattern languages at the first annual conference on Pattern Languages of Programs.

Constraint-Based Software for Concurrent Engineering ( James Bowen, Dennis Bahler ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1993-01)

- The Galileo3 programming language for developing product life-cycle design advice software is described. Galileo3's various application-oriented features, the algorithm on which the runtime system is based, and its underlying computational theory are discussed.
