Abstract(s)
The use of object-oriented techniques and concepts, like encapsulation and inheritance,
greatly improves language specifications towards better modularity, reusability and extensibility.
Additional improvements can be achieved with aspect-oriented techniques since
semantic aspects also crosscut many language constructs. Indeed, aspect-oriented constructs have been already added to some language specifications.
The LISA compiler construction system follows an object-oriented approach and has
already implemented mechanisms for inheritance, modularity and extensibility. Adding
aspects to LISA will lead to more reusable language specifications. In the paper, aspectoriented attribute grammars are introduced, and the underlying ideas are incorporated into AspectLISA, an aspect-oriented compiler generator based on attribute grammars.
