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:

    I could not undertake to form a nucleus of an institution for the development of infant minds, where none already existed. It would be too cruel.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song,
    A medley of extemporanea;
    And love is a thing that can never go wrong;
    And I am Marie of Roumania.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
