The ability to compose software from high level components is as sought after as it is elusive. The REST architectural style used in the World Wide Web enables such plug-compatible components in distributed settings.
We propose storage combinators, a ...

Standard object out: streaming objects with polymorphic write streams
We propose standard object out, an object-oriented analog to the output part of the Unix standard input output library.
Polymorphic Write Streams (PWS) act as architectural adapters between the object-oriented architectural style and the pipes and ...

In object-oriented programming, polymorphic dispatch of operations decouples clients from specific providers of services and allows implementations to be modified or substituted without affecting clients.
The Uniform Access Principle (UAP) tries to ...

Higher order messaging
We introduce Higher Order Messaging, a higher order programming mechanism for dynamic object-oriented languages. Higher Order Messages allow user-defined message dispatch mechanism to be expressed using an optimally compact syntax that is a natural ...
