From the
DSLAnnotatedBibliography:
- Our definition of DomainSpecificLanguages inherits the vagueness of one of its defining terms: problem domain. Rather than attempting to define this volatile notion as well, we list and categorize a number of domains for which DSLs have actually been built.
The
DSLAnnotatedBibliography also refers to the "Domain as a set of systems" perspective adopted in the
SoftwareReuse and
DomainEngineering communities.
GenerativeProgramming, p. 34, is more courageous, and defines a
domain as
an area of knowledge which:
- is scoped to maximize the satisfaction of the requirements of its stakeholders
- includes a set of concepts and terminology understood by practitioners in that area; and
- includes the knowledge of how to build software systems (or parts of software systems) in that area
