A Novel Approach: Leveraging a General Theory of Applied Algorithms for High-Level Language Design

Abstract

The software development industry has long recognized the need for an efficient theory to propel progress in programming technology. Despite continuous efforts, attaining a comprehensive theory has proven to be a formidable challenge. The study introduces a comprehensive theory of applied algorithms, aiming to fill this void. The proposed theory centers on the programming process as the most arduous component of software development, and strives to enable a profound revolution. The theory is grounded on two fundamental concepts: G-properties and virtual component operations. These constructs serve as the foundational elements for a thorough decomposition scheme and a circuit for producing object attributes, collectively constituting a model for a universal or canonical algorithm. The primary objective of the theory is to develop a framework for accurately combining algorithms and application programs. The decomposition scheme and synthesis loop form the basis of this approach, allowing for the creation of software solutions that are more efficient and effective. The paper emphasizes the significance of conducting extensive empirical research to validate and enhance the proposed theory. We seek to overcome the theoretical obstacles in programming technology in order to facilitate substantial progress in Software Engineering. This, in turn, will improve the efficiency and excellence of software development processes, ultimately contributing to the advancement of the field.
