Abstract

This paper gives an overview of the Moses tool suite, aset of tools for visual language programming. In Moses,visual language syntax is defined by first-order predicatesover the abstract syntax of a picture, represented by anattributed graph. One way of specifying language semanticsin Moses is by writing an Abstract State Machine thatinterprets a given attributed graph. This paper shows howthe editor is parameterized with a description of a visuallanguage, and discusses briefly the generic architectureused to animate and debug visual programs.
