[Anne Etien could not post this msg on the mentors list I m forwarding it on her behalf]. Title: FAST JavaScript model Level: advanced Possible mentor: Anne Etien Possible second mentor: Nicolas Anquetil or Yuriy Tymchuk Description: For in depth source code analysis a support of abstract syntax trees is required. FAST is an abstract syntax tree extension for FAMIX meta-model that is used by Moose technology. The goal of this project is to create a JavaScript version of FAST. Technical Details: As programming languages are different, their AST representations are different too. FAST model aims for creation of as generic as possible core that can be extended for different languages. Also the structure of a model allows creation of generic algorithms like symbol resolution, metrics calculation and rule checking that will work for any language. Prototypes of FAST for Smalltalk and Java are already implemented. During the project a student will implement the JavaScript model. More detailed information about FAST is provided in the Moose day presentation: http://youtu.be/dRr3WHOD3x4 Benefits to the Student: The student will gain a deep understanding of a JavaScript syntax and abstract syntax tree model. He will also learn about PetitParser framework, and gain knowledge about software modeling and analysis. Benefits to the Community: Community will get a FAST model for JavaScript that can be used for software assessment with Moose. Also this model can be used later in PhD projects such as automation of source code translation. With this third model, the community will have raw material to real think and improve generic algorithms based on AST. On Tue, Feb 11, 2014 at 10:42 AM, Damien Cassou <damien.cassou@gmail.com>wrote:
Hi fellow Pharo hackers,
ESUG, the European Smalltalk User Group, is applying for this year's Google Summer of Code. As you probably know, the Summer of Code provides the opportunity to fund students to work during the summer on Pharo. Please reply to this email (be sure to use "Reply to all") if you have ideas you would like to propose.
Please include a summary of the project and links to web pages that can help prospective students to write their application. Please also include the following information:
- if applicable, other dialects that you would be willing to mentor this project for
- the skill level
- name of the mentor(s), email addresses, and possibly any IRC network/channel/nickname where they can be found.
Thanks for contributing to ESUG's Summer of Code application!
