Abstract :
A metacompiler for translation of knowledge representation formalisms is presented. The metacompiler, R&CL, has been used extensively for declaring natural language processing formalisms. The syntax and semantics of target languages are defined using R&CL production rules. These rules are translated into optimized Lisp-code. R&CL is particularly well suited to nondeterministic pattern recognition and translation tasks in Lisp environments
