Intentional Programming - Development Cycle

Development Cycle

As envisioned by Simonyi, developing a new application via the Intentional Programming paradigm proceeds as follows. A programmer first builds a toolbox specific to a given problem domain (such as life insurance). Domain experts, aided by the programmer, then describe the application's intended behavior in a WYSIWYG-like manner. Finally, an automated system uses the program description and the toolbox to generate the final program. Successive changes are done at the WYSIWYG level only, employing a system called the "domain workbench".

Famous quotes containing the words development and/or cycle:

    Information about child development enhances parents’ capacity to respond appropriately to their children. Informed parents are better equipped to problem-solve, more confident of their decisions, and more likely to respond sensitively to their children’s developmental needs.
    L. P. Wandersman (20th century)

    Only mediocrities progress. An artist revolves in a cycle of masterpieces, the first of which is no less perfect than the last.
