Towards the systematic use of interfaces in JAVA programming

JAVA’s interface construct is widely perceived as a weak surrogate for multiple inheritance. Consequently, it should come as no surprise that despite their potential for writing highly decoupled code, interfaces are used rather sparingly. We have devised a conceptual framework for the utilization of interfaces in JAVA programs, and suggest tool support lessening the coding
