Towards the Software Autogeneration

Abstract- Program generators are usually aimed for the generation of program source code. This paper introduces the idea of software source code generation and its execution on demand that we refer to as Autogeneration. Autogeneration avoids the generation of program files by using the possibility of scripting languages to evaluate program code from variables. There are several features that could be achieved by Autogeneration. Some of them are program update during its execution, optimized code without temporarily unnecessary instructions and introspection of the generation process for development purposes. An example of a web application for database content management that is implemented as an autogeneration process is presented and discussed. I
