“It’s not enough to know, it has to be
applied as well; it’s not enough to want, it has to be done, too.”
(Goethe)
New technologies for new concepts
For several years, the new concepts in the area of
Generative Programming
(GP) have been meeting with increasing acceptance. The ideas are being discussed – as they
well should be, say experts. Now concrete technologies are needed to put them
into practice.
To be successful, a close collaboration between businesses and
research in the area of GP is mandatory. Delta Software Technology has dedicated
itself to this mission and combines it with practical knowledge gained from more than 30 years in
the business of commercial development of generation tools.
From frames to patterns right up to
intentions
It was a groundbreaking approach to understand the implementation of
generators as an individual domain in terms of GP and to use a special
technology created especially for this challenge – the
ANGIE frame technology.
It has proved its efficiency in both commercial projects and in research, and
is meeting with increasing popularity.
Based on ANGIE,
Delta Software Technology has developed the
Pattern By Example (PBE)
tool, an entirely new approach to pattern-based software development.
PBE derives from a
bottom-up perspective that automates intuitive working methods. As a direct
result, PBE is promptly applicable for many different development tasks.
HyperSenses is the
latest technology developed by Delta Software Technology. Essential elements
of the concepts of
Intentional Programming
(IP) have been realized and are currently undergoing testing in real-world
projects.
Thanks
to this pioneering work, we will soon see entirely new opportunities for the use
of generators in software development.
