  1. DSLs: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Charles Consel INRIA / University of Bordeaux

  2. Background • Designed and implemented DSLs in a variety of areas, including • Stream processing • Device drivers • Programmable routers • Coordination of networked entities • Telephony service creation • Co-founder of the INRIA-spinoff Siderion Technologies • Worked on methodologies towards developing DSLs and assessing their practicality.

  3. The Good • DSL can dramatically shorten the path between a specification and an implementation • DSL enables domain-specific verifications • DSL hides the combination of complex technologies • As a scripting language • As a disappearing language

  4. The Bad and The Ugly • Lack of a systematic approach to duplicating DSL successes • Lack of tools for domain analysis and language design • Lack of a global view, beyond a DSL • PL not used to have customers • DSL not integrated into a domain process, tool, … • No user study of DSLs
