Abstract

Several tools have been developed for the authoring of intensional (context-sensitive) documents; for example. IHTML (Intensional HTML), IML (Intensional Markup Language). and ISE (Intensional Sequential Evaluator). However, at present, it is still very difficult to author intensional markup documents. To ease this difficulty. this thesis presents two new intensional authoring tools. IMP (Intensional Macro Processor) and ICC (Intensional C Compiler). IMP is a powerful yet easy to use macro processor embedded with a JavaScript engine. ICC in turn is an intensional extension to ANSI C. Several applications of IMP and ICC such as WIMPAS. intensional spreadsheet and CGI programming in ICC are discussed in this thesis to illustrate how IMP and ICC facilitate intensional authoring.
