Abstract

Domain experts think and reason at a high level of abstraction when they solve problems in their domain of expertise. We present the design and motivation behind a domain specific language called 驴-LOG to enable biologists (domain experts) to program solutions to phylogenetic inference problems at a very high level of abstraction. The implementationinfrastructure (interpreter, compiler, debugger) for the DSL is automatically obtained through a software engineering framework based on Denotational Semantics and Logic Programming.
