Java and the Object-Oriented Paradigm: Comparison and Evaluation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Java has, undoubtedly, received unprecedented hype. This article examines Java in light of the Object-Oriented (OO for short) paradigm. We investigate whether the hype or part of it is due to the OO features, or due to other features of the language. For that purpose, we compare Java with other major OO languages such as C++, Eiffel and Smalltalk. Furthermore, we evaluate Java to arrive at an unbiased judgement regarding its expressive power of the OO paradigm. We outline some of the new interesting features of Java that we hope will be adopted by the OO community as new characteristics of OO languages. Finally, we present some recommendations that we hope will be considered in new

Declarative Semantics in Object-Oriented Software Development - A Taxonomy and Survey
One of the modern paradigms to develop an application is object oriented analysis and design. In this paradigm, there are several objects and each object plays some specific roles in applications. In an application, we must distinguish between procedural semantics and declarative semantics for their implementation in a specific programming language. For the procedural semantics, we can write a ...
متن کاملOn Attributes of Objects in Object-Oriented Software Analysis
One of the modern paradigms to develop a system is object oriented analysis and design. In this paradigm, there are several objects and each object plays some specific roles. There is a sequence of activities to develop an analysis model. In the first step, we work in developing an initial use case model. Then in the second step, they identify a number of concepts and build a glossary of partic...
متن کاملObjects Identification in Object-Oriented Software Development - A Taxonomy and Survey on Techniques
Analysis and design of object oriented is onemodern paradigms for developing a system. In this paradigm, there are several objects and each object plays some specific roles. Identifying objects (and classes) is one of the most important steps in the object-oriented paradigm. This paper makes a literature review over techniques to identify objects and then presents six taxonomies for them. The f...
متن کاملTest Coverage Analysis for Object Oriented Programs - Structural Testing Through Aspect Oriented Instrumentation
The introduction of Object Oriented Technologies in test centered processes has emphasized the importance of finding new methods for software verification. Testing metrics and practices, developed for structured programs, have to be adapted in order to address the prerogatives of object oriented programming. In this work, we introduce a new approach to structural coverage evaluation in the test...
متن کاملExploring the synergies between the Object-Oriented paradigm and Mathematics: a Java led approach
Whilst the object oriented paradigm and its instantiation within programming languages such as Java has become a ubiquitous part of both the commercial and educational landscapes, its usage as a visualisation technique within Mathematics undergraduate programmes of study has perhaps been somewhat underestimated. By regarding the object oriented paradigm as a medium for conceptual exploration (r...
