In early 1986, one of us (D.M.S.) was constructing an artificial
intelligence system to design algorithms, and the other (A.P.A.)
was getting started in program transformations research. We shared
an office, and exchanged a few papers on the systematic development
of algorithms from specifications. Gradually we realized that we
were trying to solve some of the same problems. And so, despite
radical differences between ourselves in research approaches, we
set out together to see what we could learn from these papers.
That's how this book started: a couple of graduate students trying
to cope with The Literature. At first, there was just a list of
papers. One of us (D.M.S.) tried to cast the papers in a uniform
framework by describing the problem spaces searched, an approach
used in artificial intelligence for understanding many tasks. The
generalized problem space descriptions, though useful, seemed to
abstract too much, so we decided to compare papers by different
authors dealing with the same algorithm. These comparisons proved
crucial: for then we began to see similar key design choices for
each algorithm.
