Generative and component approaches have the potential to revolutionize
software development in a similar way as automation and components
revolutionized manufacturing. Generative Programming (developing
programs that synthesize other programs), Component Engineering (raising
the level of modularization and analysis in application design), and
Domain-Specific Languages (elevating program specifications to compact
domain-specific notations that are easier to write and maintain) are key
technologies for automating program development.
GPCE arose as a joint conference, merging the prior conference on
Generative and Component-Based Software Engineering (GCSE) and the
Workshop on Semantics, Applications, and Implementation of Program
Generation (SAIG). The goal of GPCE is to provide a meeting place for
researchers and practitioners interested in cutting edge approaches to
software development. We aim to foster further cross-fertilization
between the software engineering research community on the one hand, and
the programming languages community on the other, in addition to
supporting the original research goals of both the GCSE and the SAIG
communities. We seek papers both in software engineering and in programming
languages, and especially those that bridge the gap and are accessible to
both communities at the same time.
