Title : Domain Specific Languages: fighting accidental complexity in a sea of technology

Presented by Shawn Hartsock

Summary 

Because the world is full of software there is a high risk of adding accidental complexity to systems. Today software systems are rarely written from scratch and software must be made from existing systems for use by other systems. What is unique to each application may be lost in the noise of solving accidental problems created by using what already is in place. If we decompose applications into domains and create common ways to manipulate these domains we can accomplish both the vital tasks of allowing interoperability and hiding accidental complexity. Domain Specific Languages coupled with Meta-Programming can be a powerful set of techniques in our battle to keep complexity at bay.
