Although becoming more accepted in software industry,
object-oriented technology still is an active ?eld of research with
many issues remaining to be addressed. This workshop reader, in a
way, presents the width of the ongoing research activities in
object-orientation. However, we feel one can classify these
activities into three cate- ries: * Domain-speci?c: Several
activities focus on a single application, e.g. telec- munication,
or computer-science, e.g. real-time and mobility, domain. Research
tries to address the domain-speci?c problems of object-oriented
technology. * Design issues: Object-oriented design has been an
issue for at least a decade, but one can identify an increasing
focus on formal approaches and on the evo- tion and re-engineering
of existing object-oriented software. * Beyond object-orientation:
The object-oriented paradigm will, at some point, be replaced by a
subsequent paradigm and several research efforts investigate
alternative or extended approaches. Examples are extended language
expr- siveness for, e.g. design patterns and frameworks,
component-oriented p- gramming and aspect-oriented programming. 2
