Parsing context-dependent computer languages requires an ability to maintain and query data structures while parsing for the purpose of influencing the parse. Parsing ambiguous co...
The Generalized LR (GLR) parsing algorithm is attractive for use in parsing programming languages because it is asymptotically efficient for typical grammars, and can parse with an...
For decades we have been using Chomsky's generative system of grammars, particularly context-free grammars (CFGs) and regular expressions (REs), to express the syntax of prog...
Packrat parsing is a powerful parsing algorithm presented by Ford in 2002. Packrat parsers can handle complicated grammars and recursive structures in lexical elements more easily...
A major research goal for compilers and environments is the automatic derivation of tools from formal specifications. However, the formal model of the language is often inadequat...
