From Structural regular expressions by Rob Pike (http://www.cs.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/doc/87/3-se.ps.gz): "Using regular expressions to describe the structure in addition to the contents of files has interesting applications, and yields elegant methods for dealing with some problems".

The talk will include a brief explanation of the concept with a couple of Perl examples.
