Ralf Lämmel. Eelco Visser - An Exceptional SLE Researcher. In Eelco Visser Commemorative Symposium (EVCS 2023). Open Access Series in Informatics (OASIcs), Volume 109, pp. 17:1-17:13, Schloss Dagstuhl – Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik (2023)

Abstract

These notes honor Eelco Visser as an exceptional member of the Software Language Engineering (SLE) community. The notes are authored from the perspective of an SLE co-founder and a continuous SLE supporter. As an inevitable side effect, a short history of SLE is captured. The commemoration begins with Eelco’s role in launching the SLE conference. The commemoration continues with Eelco’s contributions as an author and his involvement with running the conference and working towards an SLE Body of Knowledge (SLEBoK). The commemoration ends with recalling Eelco’s role as the de-facto SLE photographer.
