WAGon : A Weighted Attribute Grammar Oriented Notation

Weighted Attribute Grammars (WAGs) are an emerging field of study and have been used for a variety of different tasks. However, due to the as-of-now obscure nature of the field, researchers are left to re-invent the wheel every time, having to implement a WAG parser before they can start the interesting part of their research. This paper proposes the creation of a standardized Domain Specific Language (DSL) to define WAGs, as well as a workbench to facilitate working with this DSL and a parser generator that functions as a business case.
