- Are modern languages different from older languages?
These as well as many other questions were be discussed at the language design session. The first part of the session provided an overview of computer languages, a history of ways humans have been talking to machines and some state of the art. For the second part, we designed a couple of languages in groups. During the third part we analysed our achievements and in general list some recent achievements in software language design, requirements, analysis, implementation, evolution and mapping.
