This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the ACM SIGPLAN/SIGSOFT Conference on Generative Programming and Component Engineering, GPCE 2002, held in Pittsburgh, PA, USA in October 2002. The 18 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. Among the topics covered are generative programming, meta-programming, program specialization, program analysis, program transformation, domain-specific languages, software architectures, aspect-oriented programming, and component-based systems.
