Building software since 8, got a PhD in Software Engineering and experience in research and industry across 4 countries
I co-founded Strumenta on the 4th of December 2017. Before that I have been working as an independent consultant specialized in Language Engineering for a few years. So it is natural to stop and look at the way we ran across this year and where we want to go next year and the years to […]
Why this interview? This time I sat down with Daniel Stieger, who is the co-founder of a well known consulting company in the Language Engineering field. We met at at Jetbrains MPS meeting in Munich last year and our companies (ours Strumenta and his Modellwerkstatt) offer similar services. So for us it was a great opportunity […]
If you read this blog regularly you will know that I really believe in the power of tools to support people in their work. I even called my consulting company Strumenta, which means “tools” in Latin. I am also a big supporter of Jetbrains: I think they make great products that really improve the life […]
I have a lot of conversations with persons interested in language engineering. Many of them are with readers of our newsletter, others are with clients of my consulting business. In the last few weeks, several of these conversations were about converting PL/SQL code to Java. I am interested in this topic because I believe that […]
I recently heard about Bromium, a Domain Specific Language (DSL) to describe user actions on a UI. Given I love everything regarding DSLs I contacted his author, Hristo Vrigazov, and chatted with him about: the DSL he has built, building editors using Xtext, working on an open-source project his visions on language engineering Enjoy! […]
Let’s see how we can design a DSL. Many readers appreciated the tutorials we wrote on implementing Domain Specific Languages but kept asking us resources on the designing of these languages. On this blog we have discussed already how to write parsers, interpreters, and compilers but we did not write much on what comes before, […]
In this article we are going to examine Telosys, a code generation tool. We will do that by discussing with its author, Laurent Guerin. This will give us the possibility to learn also about his views on code generation and what its users have accomplished by using Telosys. Why are code generation tools relevant? […]
Normally in this blog I write about technical stuff: mostly tutorials and ideas on software design. Sometimes however I share what is going on with my professional life: I wrote about what I learned working at TripAdvisor, and about my first year as an independent consultant, before I co-founded Strumenta. Over the years I had […]
The Jetbrains MetaProgrammin-System (MPS) I published the original version of this article in March 2012, using MPS 2.0.6. I have then updated in July 2018, using MPS 2018.1.5. It is interesting to see how MPS evolved in the meantime. The MetaProgramming-System is a Language Workbench based on projectional editing and it is the most advanced […]
We were lucky enough to get an interview from Pedro J. Molina. He has been a well-known protagonist in the Language Engineering field for quite some time. For me it was such an honor to finally meet him, even if virtually. In this interview he tells us about his experience using DSLs, his activities at […]
