Abstract
We focus our research on developing the right methodology and gathering the adequate re-usable methodology and toolset in order to design a domain specific language for high energy physics (HEP) data analysis. We aim at a framework that from a specification model using a simple high level abstraction language (domain specific visual query language - commonly known as DSL) we generate automatically the target source code in some general purpose language (GPL, at the level of the analysis framework) which exactly expresses the querys modeled by the physicist. This source code can then be compiled and run against the analysis framework of a specific HEP experiment. In this communication we will focus on methodological issues, although presenting the conclusions on the latest survey done on domain specific languages (DSL) development tools.
