Abstract

Attribute grammars were introduced in the late 60's. In the 70's they found use in compiler work, a use that is continuing to grow. A more recent development is that of the ‘attribute grammar programming paradigm’. A number of environments have been built to support this paradigm. W/AGE is one such environment. It consists of several functions that extend the standard environment of the pure lazy functional programming language Miranda. W/AGE has been used in the construction of various types of program including natural language interpreters, database front-ends, file-processors, theorem provers, and VLSI specification transformers.
