Domain-Specific Modeling Languages (DSML) enable domain experts to leverage Model-Driven Engineering methods and tools through concepts and notations from their own domain. The notation of a DSML is critical because it is the sole interface domain experts will have with their tool. Unfortunately, the current process for the development of DSMLs strongly emphasizes the abstract syntaxes and often treats the notations (concrete syntaxes) as byproducts. Focusing on the case of

DSMLs, this paper proposes to automatically generate a DSML’s abstract syntax from the specification of its concrete syntax. This shift towards the notation-driven development of DSMLs is expected to enable the production of DSMLs closer to domain experts’ expectations. This approach is validated by its implementation in a prototype, its application on an industrial case and the results of an empirical study.
