Business users doing programming? In this interview, Charles Simonyi presents a radical new way of building software that separates business knowledge from software engineering knowledge. The claim is to simplify the creation process for software as business experts directly contribute using their customary domain description which results in accelerated innovation.
IP will not solve the problems, but enable the user to make the easier, specific choice in the user's domain.
Charles Simonyi, The Death of Computer Languages, The Birth of Intentional Programming
The complexity of software code is the result of the intermingling of domain knowledge with implementation information. Generative Programming and Domain Specific Languages are known techniques for factoring and reducing the total complexity. The Domain Workbench that Intentional Software Corporation is developing makes the definition, creation, editing, combination, extension, and processing of DSL's more practical. Key features of the Domain Workbench are the uniform representation of multiple interrelated domains, the ability to project the domains in multiple editable notations, and direct access to the domain code by a program generator.

The book is an excellent complement to Domain Specific Languages by Martin Fowler with Rebecca Parsons. Whereas Fowler’s book concentrates its focus on the generally well established methods for traditional, textually based DSL development with parsers and compilers, “DSL Engineering” takes a wider perspective and includes a more detailed discussion of modern Language Workbenches such as the Intentional Domain Workbench. The book compares both approaches and provides useful context for when each approach has an advantage.
