Its not public language, but at Risk Management Systems, I worked on Contract Definition Language- an external DSL for computable insurance, re-insurance contracts. This was used to simulate insurance losses when catastrophic events happen (earthquake, hurricane)

Any good reference for that CDL? The idea seems quite useful for what I'm working on. All I found is a wishy-washy doc with poorly chosen examples [0]

RMS never played nice on interoperability. I wouldn’t bet on the CDL to become a useful standard, because it is under-powered, under-specified and stagnant.

The “open” alternative is OASIS. Their Open Exposure Data standard [1] is complete and supported by many industry participants. Unfortunately it’s a database based format, rather than a text based DSL, but still betterthan the alternatives.

Thank you! I wasn't aware of OASIS. Reading up now.
