The appeal of persistent class-oriented programming languages is great. Allowing class definitions to be persistent, in addition to instance data, greatly increases the ease of ac...
An object encoding translates a language with object primitives to one without. Similarly, a class encoding translates classes into other primitives. Both are important theoretica...
Class Hierarchies, Factories, and Stable Designs M uch of the debate about the general aptness of class hierarchies is rooted in the different objectives taxonomists and implemente...
We consider the estimation of the order, i.e., the number of hidden states, of a special class of discrete-time finite-alphabet hidden Markov sources. This class can be characteriz...
An object-oriented design is presented for building interactive 3D graphics applications. The design takes the form of a library of classes written in Eiffel, an object oriented l...
