Object-Oriented Reuse, Concurrency and Distribution: An Ada-Based Approach (ACM Press) [Hardcover]

Colin Atkinson (Author)

Book Description

Series: ACM Press | Publication Date: June 1991

Now software engineers can learn how to apply the techniques of object-oriented programming to large systems. This book shows how object-oriented programming can be used to develop reusable components, especially for concurrent and distributed systems. Using the DRAGOON Language, (a new language that has evolved from a European research effort), it provides a coherent framework for developing systems which allow for dynamic reconfiguration and fault-tolerance. All the examples in the book can be easily implemented in the Ada language.

5.0 out of 5 stars Object Oriented Programming, September 30, 2008

By

This review is from: Object-Oriented Reuse, Concurrency and Distribution: An Ada-Based Approach (ACM Press) (Hardcover)

Without Indtroduction, there are many contents about object-oriented programming, introducing DRAGOON, inheritance-based reuse, genericity, concurrency, distribution, system configuration, etc.
8.1.1 "The 'main program' concept" is very interesting.
At the oposite side on Ada, assembler programming is not always have main program.
This is the point that I was interesting.
This book is not concerned with assembler programming which is the best language of object oriented. Because the register is the object of CPU, assembler is the only language that have real objects.

Best Regards.
