      abstract = {This book details the conceptual foundations, design and  implementation of the domain-specific language (DSL)  development system DjDSL. DjDSL facilitates  design-decision-making on and implementation of reusable  DSL and DSL-product lines, and represents the  state-of-the-art in language-based and composition-based  DSL development. As such, it unites elements at the  crossroads between software-language engineering,  model-driven software engineering, and feature-oriented  software engineering. The book is divided into six  chapters. Chapter 1 ("DSL as Variable Software") explains  the notion of DSL as variable software in greater detail  and introduces readers to the idea of software-product line  engineering for DSL-based software systems. Chapter 2  ("Variability Support in DSL Development") sheds light on a  number of interrelated dimensions of DSL variability:  variable development processes, variable design-decisions,  and variability-implementation techniques for DSL. The  three subsequent chapters are devoted to the key conceptual  and technical contributions of DjDSL: Chapter 3 ("Variable  Language Models") explains how to design and implement the  abstract syntax of a DSL in a variable manner. Chapter 4  ("Variable Context Conditions") then provides the means to  refine an abstract syntax (language model) by using  composable context conditions (invariants). Next, Chapter 5  ("Variable Textual Syntaxes") details solutions to  implementing variable textual syntaxes for different types  of DSL. In closing, Chapter 6 ("A Story of a DSL Family")  shows how to develop a mixed DSL in a step-by-step manner,  demonstrating how the previously introduced techniques can  be employed in an advanced example of developing a DSL  family. The book is intended for readers interested in  language-oriented as well as model-driven software  development, including software-engineering researchers and  advanced software developers alike. An understanding of  software-engineering basics (architecture, design,  implementation, testing) and software patterns is  essential. Readers should especially be familiar with the  basics of object-oriented modelling (UML, MOF, Ecore) and  programming (e.g., Java).},
