The Essence of Object Orientation for CS0: Concepts without Code
نویسنده
چکیده
Why is object-orientation so popular? Is it a fad or is there real value to developing software systems the object-oriented way? Given the emerging prevalence of computational thinking across the disciplines these are questions that a wide range of students are curious about. This paper describes our approach to providing a conceptual overview in a CS0 context of the essential ideas of and the value provided by object-orientation without resorting to code.

A Multi-Formalism Modeling Framework: Formal Definitions, Model Composition and Solution Strategies
In this paper, we present a multi-formalism modeling framework (abbreviated by MFMF) for modeling and simulation. The proposed framework is defined based on the concepts of meta-models and uses object-orientation to overcome the complexities and to enhance the extensibility. The framework can be used as a basis for modeling by various formalisms and to support model composition in a unified man...
