Programming with Grammars: An Exercise in Methodology-Directed Language Design

E. C. R. Hehner1 * and B. A. Silverberg2 §

1 Computer Systems Research Group, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada, 2 Apple Computer Corp., 10260 Bandley Drive, Cupertino, USA

Our premise is that programming languages should be designed to facilitate a programming methodology. We begin with the methodology of Michael Jackson; the notation that results is similar to Hoare's communicating sequential processes. Data and processing structures are described together in one grammatical formalism.

Received November 1982.
