Abstract
The GEPI system is a programming environment generator. GEPI generates fully Ante grated programming environments in which sharing and synchronization between tools, such as language-based editors, static-semantic analyzers, etc., are defined by using attribute grammars. This paper proposes a concurrent object-oriented paradigm for describing and evaluating attribute grammars: an attribute grammar is represented by objects whose persistent memory represents attribute values. Attribute evaluation is performed through asynchronous message passing.
