Christian Wende, Nils Thieme, Steffen Zschaler

• DOI: 10.1007/978-3-642-12107-4_19
• T1D: Composition
  • The paper’s central contribution is a modularisation mechanism (roles) for structuring language definitions.
• T1E: Reuse
  • Role-based modularity enables reuse of language components across variants and contexts.
• T4A: Workbenches
  • Such modular language engineering is typically realised and evaluated through supporting tooling.
