part6 – Ted Neward
summary
Claim: the next five years hinge on new languages because a language renaissance is already solving real problems like security, data integration and expressiveness. Names include Scala, AspectJ, LINQ and niche runtimes like Erlang and Haskell on their own VMs. Assertion: academics have prototypes that scale to production and DSLs let teams build a language in a day to target specific domains. Concrete example: language-level XML/XPath support as in VAR total = order.item.price cuts dozens of DOM lines into one expression.
