Fusing a Transformation Language with an Open Compiler

Program transformation systems provide powerful analysis and transformation frameworks as well as concise languages for language processing, but instantiating them for every subject language is an arduous task, most often resulting in halfcompleted frontends. Compilers provide mature frontends with robust parsers and type checkers, but solving...
