Objective:

Demonstrate the language workbench features of the Rascal meta programming language and environment. Investigate domain specific language application in the domain of questionnaires and surveys.

Users:

Students, scientists.

Impact:

Questionnaires are common in social science, tax administration and statistics. Discovering the right abstractions for describing questionnaires has the potential to significantly improve the practice of constructing questionnaire software.

Competition:

Traditional survey tools are often wizard-based, lack computational capabilities and lack a formal foundation. The same language is built in a number of different language workbenches which served as a benchmark to compare such tools [24] .

Engineering:

Uses all features of the Rascal language workbench.
