Objectives
1) To demonstrate that semantic modularization techniques can be combined with self-optimizing run-time systems to create a practical and effective software-product line of programming language components; 2) To improve the state-of-the-art and develop new techniques for semantic modularity, and to show that these techniques scale-up to real-world problems; 3) To conduct an extensive empiral evaluation to assess the results of work. In the empirical evaluation we will develop various programming languages implementations by assembling modular programming language components. The language implementations will include real-world programming languages, such as Python or Ruby.
