SLEBOK: The Software Language Engineering Body of Knowledge (Dagstuhl Seminar 17342)

This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 17342 "SLEBOK: The Software Language Engineering Body of Knowledge". Software Language Engineering (SLE) has emerged as a scientific field, with a strong motivation to connect and integrate different research disciplines such as compiler construction, reverse engineering, software transformation, model-driven engineering, and ontologies. This seminar supported further integration of said communities with the clear objective of assembling a Body of Knowledge on SLE (SLEBoK). The BoK features artifacts, definitions, methods, techniques, best practices, open challenges, case studies, teaching material, and other components that will afterwards help students, researchers, teachers, and practitioners to learn from, to better leverage, to better contribute to, and to better disseminate the intellectual contributions and practical tools and techniques coming from the SLE field.
