This is a blog representation of Kay Schl\u00fchr ( ‘ka\u026a \u0283ly\u0250 ). I’m a native German and “Kay” is a male name in Germany. The pronunciation of the “ay” vowel is as in “guy”. So my first name sounds like the Japanese “Kai” and not like the anglophone “Kay”.<\/p>\n
I’m a mathematician and software developer, working and pausing a freelancer. I’m interested in programming as a (popular) culture and a medium of thought.<\/p>\n
My major programming project is called Langscape<\/em>, which is the successor project of EasyExtend which I started in 2006. Langscape is a programming language oriented framework used to create and modify languages on the syntactical level but it is also a plethora of tools for analysis and synthesis of programming language expressions. Langscape is associated with Trail<\/em>, which is the name of the frameworks parser generator. Trail uses a parsing algorithm which I\u00a0 called Trace Based Parsing ( TBP ), which is a generalization of older techniques used for decades in the domain of regular expression matching. TBP and its automata model has been a source of a plethora of insights and techniques, “spin offs” which are not directly related to parsing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is a blog representation of Kay Schl\u00fchr ( ‘ka\u026a \u0283ly\u0250 ).
