It provides appropriate built-in abstractions and notations*. Programs in DSLs explicitly specify only part of the behavior because a significant portion of the behavior is implicit and fixed. * * Mernik, M., Heering, J., Sloane, A.: When and How to Develop Domain-Specific Languages. ACM Computing Surveys 37, 316-344, 2005 DSLs and Domain Analysis DSL development phases: decision analysis design implementation deployment maintenance * DSLs and Domain Analysis The beginning phases of DSL development are less well understood. Some open issues: How should results from domain analysis drive the language design process? Should a DSL be designed by a domain expert, GPL designer or software language engineer? How much domain analysis and language design is actually needed? Can we build tools which support us in earlier phases of DSL development? * DSLs and Domain Analysis Domain Analysis To build the domain model (an explicit representation of the common and the variable properties of a domain, the semantics of the properties, the dependencies between the properties). Some typical domain analysis activities are analysis of similarities, analysis of variations, and analysis of combinations. * DSLs and Domain Analysis Many domain analysis methods exist, such as: Feature-Oriented Domain Analysis (FODA) Draco Domain Analysis and Reuse Environment (DARE) Family-Oriented Abstraction, Specification, and Translation (FAST) … But, they are rarely used in DSL d
