Product Description: This book contains a refereed collection of revised papers selected from the presentations at the France-Japan Workshop on Object-Based Parallel and Distributed Computation, OBPDC'95, held in Tokyo in June 1995.The 18 full papers included in the book constitute a representative, well-balanced set of timely research contributions to the growing field of object-based concurrent computing...read more

This collection of original research provides a comprehensive survey of developments at the leading edge of concurrent object-oriented programming. It documents progress―from general concepts to specific descriptions―in programming language design, semantic tools, systems, architectures, and applications. Chapters are written at a tutorial level and are accessible to a wide audience, including researchers, programmers, and technical managers.The problem of designing systems for concurrent programming has become an increasingly important area of research in computer science with a concomitant increase in the popularity of object-based programming. Because parallelism is a natural consequence of the use of objects, the development of systems for concurrent object-oriented programming is providing important software support for a new generation of concurrent computers.

Product Description: Object-oriented concurrent programming is a major new programming paradigm that exploits the benefits of object orientation concurrency, and distributed systems. This book provides an overview of the new paradigm through the programming language ABCL...read more

Product Description: This book deals with a major theme of the Japanese Fifth Generation Project, which emphasizes logic programming, parallelism, and distributed systems. It presents a collection of tutorials and research papers on a new programming and design methodology in which the system to be constructed is modeled as a collection of abstract entities called "objects" and concurrent messages passing among objects...read more
