                             The ELAN Compiler

   Date:    19.02.98
   Time:    10:00
   Venue:   F013, UvA WINS
   Speaker: Pierre-Etienne Moreau (INRIA)
   Title:   The ELAN Compiler

   This  will be a two part presentation. After the first part, which wil
   take between 30 and 45 minutes, there will be a break.

   In  the  first  part  I  try  to do a general presentation of the ELAN
   environment. Here is the plan of my presentation:

The ELAN environment (general presentation)
     _________________________________________________________________

     * the ELAN specification formalism
     * the interpreter
     * some examples
     * the parser and the preprocessor
     * some more advanced examples
     * the non existing debugger
     * the environment organisation
     * the old compiler
     * the new compiler

   And here is the second part.

The ELAN compiler (technical presentation)
     _________________________________________________________________

     * some implementation details about the interpreter
     * presentation of the new compiler
     * the Reduce Elan Format
     * data structure representation
     * implementation of builtin sorts and operators
     * compilation of syntactic many-to-one matching
     * compilation   of   associative   and  commutative  ``many-to-one''
       matching
     * compilation of backtracking and strategies
     * further works and discussion
     _________________________________________________________________

   The  programming environment meetings are a forum for the presentation
   and  discussion  of  new  ideas,  ongoing and finished work. A typical
   meeting  addresses  a subject in the area of programming environments,
   program  generation, algebraic specification, term rewriting, parsing,
   etc.  A presentation ideally takes between 45 and 90 minutes. Meetings
   taking  longer  than 45 minutes are interrupted by a coffeebreak. Most
   Thursdays,  a  meeting is held which starts at 10:00 am. in one of the
   rooms at CWI/WINS. Exceptionally, dates or times may change.

   The    program    of    the    meetings    is    available   on   WWW:
