The term programming domain is mostly used when referring to domain-specific programming languages. It refers to a set of programming languages or programming environments that were written specifically for a particular domain, where domain means a broad subject for end users such as accounting or finance, or a category of program usage such as artificial intelligence or email. Languages and systems within a single programming domain would have functions common to the domain and may omit functions that are irrelevant to a domain.[1]
Some examples of programming domains are:
- General purpose applications
- Rapid software prototyping
- Financial time series analysis
- Natural language processing
- Artificial intelligence reasoning
- Expert systems
- Gameplay Programming
- Relational database querying
- Theorem proving
- Systems design and implementation
- Application scripting
- Domain-specific applications
- Programming education
- Internet
- Symbolic mathematics
- Numerical mathematics
- Statistical applications
- Text processing
- Matrix algorithms
- Image processing/video processing/computer vision
