Spoofax at Oracle: Domain-Specific Language Engineering for Large-Scale Graph Analytics

Authors: Houda Boukham, Guido Wachsmuth, Toine Hartman, Hamza Boucherit, Oskar van Rest, Hassan Chafi, Sungpack Hong, Martijn Dwars, Arnaud Delamare, and Dalila Chiadmi

Abstract
For the last decade, teams at Oracle relied on the Spoofax language workbench to develop a family of domain-specific languages for graph analytics in research projects and in product development. In this paper, we analyze the requirements for integrating language processors into large-scale graph analytics toolkits and for the development of these language processors as part of a larger product development process. We discuss how Spoofax helps to meet these requirements and point out the need for future improvements.

Scopes and Frames Improve Meta-Interpreter Specialization

Authors: Vlad Vergu, Andrew Tolmach, and Eelco Visser

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 134, 33rd European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2019)


Abstract
DynSem is a domain-specific language for concise specification of the dynamic semantics of programming languages, aimed at rapid experimentation and evolution of language designs. To maintain a short definition-to-execution cycle, DynSem specifications are meta-interpreted. Meta-interpretation introduces runtime overhead that is difficult to remove by using interpreter optimization frameworks such as the Truffle/Graal Java tools; previous work has shown order-of-magnitude improvements from applying Truffle/Graal to a meta-interpreter, but this is still far slower than what can be achieved with a language-specific interpreter. In this paper, we show how specifying the meta-interpreter using scope graphs, which encapsulate static name binding and resolution information, produces much better optimization results from Truffle/Graal. Furthermore, we identify that JIT compilation is hindered by large numbers of calls between small polymorphic rules and we introduce rule cloning to derive larger monomorphic rules at run time as a countermeasure. Our contributions improve the performance of DynSem-derived interpreters to within an order of magnitude of a handwritten language-specific interpreter.

DynSem: A DSL for Dynamic Semantics Specification

Authors: Vlad Vergu, Pierre Neron, and Eelco Visser

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 36, 26th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA 2015)


Abstract
The formal semantics of a programming language and its implementation are typically separately defined, with the risk of divergence such that properties of the formal semantics are not properties of the implementation. In this paper, we present DynSem, a domain-specific language for the specification of the dynamic semantics of programming languages that aims at supporting both formal reasoning and efficient interpretation. DynSem supports the specification of the operational semantics of a language by means of statically typed conditional term reduction rules. DynSem supports concise specification of reduction rules by providing implicit build and match coercions based on reduction arrows and implicit term constructors. DynSem supports modular specification by adopting implicit propagation of semantic components from I-MSOS, which allows omitting propagation of components such as environments and stores from rules that do not affect those. DynSem supports the declaration of native operators for delegation of aspects of the semantics to an external definition or implementation. DynSem supports the definition of auxiliary meta-functions, which can be expressed using regular reduction rules and are subject to semantic component propagation. DynSem specifications are executable through automatic generation of a Java-based AST interpreter.
