DML - A Meta-language and System for the Generation of Practical and Efficient Compilers from Denotational Specifications
1 DML, the Denotational Meta Language, is a specification language and a compiler generation tool for producing practical and efficient compilers from Denotational Semantics specifications. This means that code emitted from generated compilers should be product quality, and that generated compilers...
