Welcome to the GP-Letter!

Our GP-Letter regularly informs you of current issues, events, solutions and product developments regarding the spotlighted theme of generative programming and, in particular, of our latest tools "Pattern By Example", "ANGIE Generation Now!" and "HyperSenses".

1. Premiere: Model-Driven Development and Product Lines

For the first time the conference "Model-Driven Development and Product Lines: Synergies and Experience" takes place on 19-20 October 2006 in Leipzig, Germany. Renowned speakers will present the current status of concepts for model-based tools and product lines. Besides lectures and presentations, panel discussions will provide an opportunity to discuss the real-world usability of the presented concepts.

Rüdiger Schilling, Delta's CTO, highlights the usage of software generators as a central theme: When does the usage of generators become profitable – and when not? His lecture focuses on model-based project-specific generators, and will include references to current project results and related experiences.

The list of speakers is a true "Who is who" of the MDD scene. Profit from this unique opportunity and sign on now!

2. Our Event Tip: OOPSLA 2006

Delta and its research partners have developed a process-based product line architecture for the application area "automotive" that automates the development of process-based applications. Cord Giese, Research Analyst at Delta, will present a detailed case study on this topic at this year's OOPSLA.

The OOPSLA conference is definitely one of the highlights of the year for all people interested in object-oriented software development and related techniques. This year the GPCE conference is co-located with OOPSLA, meaning that technical and practical considerations of generative programming come to the fore.
