Object-Oriented Programming Model for Synthesis of Domain-Specific Application Development Environment

Domain-specific languages are becoming increasingly popular allowing experts to focus on solving their specific problems instead of focusing on the means needed. Various domain- specific tools have been developed that allow experts to design systems and workflows by connecting graphical elements together. These elements have to either be predefined by a developer, or created by the expert by combining simpler objects together. The issue of bridging the gap between the semantics of the problem and the technology used to implement the solution therefore stays with the software developer. In this article, we propose an enhancement of the object oriented programming paradigm that is aimed at easier conversion of the technology (objects, classes) into their visual representation. We propose a high-level implementation domain to expert domain compiler that is able to automatically generate domain-specific representations of available technical components. The compiler is designed as a general-purpose domain-agnostic agent, which generates appropriate domain- specific representations of the technology using technical data obtained from the system and domain-specific data provided as a set of rules. This paper discusses the requirements placed on the architecture of the input system, the design requirements for the domain-agnostic compiler and the data needed for a complete description of the domain specifics.
