Benefits of such active research fields are, among others: - Program analysis, transformation, generation - Formal analysis of language properties - Automatic generation of language processing tools Although these benefits are well-known, they are in current practices hardly exploited. For example, language definitions can be augmented in a manner that not only compilers/interpreters can be automatically generated but also other tools such as syntax-directed editors, debuggers, partial evaluators, test case generators, documentation generators, etc. Domains of applications that are of interest for this workshop are among others: - Language components, modeling languages - Re-engineering, re-factoring - Aspect-oriented programming, adaptive programming - Domain-specific languages - XML processing - Visualization and graph transformation Invited Talk: ------------- Hassan Ait Kaci, Distinguished Scientist, Research an Development, ILOG, France. Tool demonstrations: -------------------- The one day LDTA 2003 workshop program will also include a session on tool demonstrations. Submission procedure and publication: ------------------------------------- Accepted papers will be published and available during the workshop. After revision, final copies of the accepted papers will be published in Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science (ENTCS), Elsevier Science. Author's instructions are given here. The authors of the best papers will be invited to write a journal version of their paper which will be separately reviewed and after acceptance be published in a special issue devoted to LDTA 2003 of the journal Science of Computer Programming (Elsevier Science).
