MASTER'S THESIS PRESENTATION
-Tuesday, October 10, 1995
Constantinos Sourelis, graduate student, Dept. Comp.
Sci., Univ. Waterloo, will speak on Mixin Modules".
TIME: 4:00-5:00 p.m.
ROOM: DC 3301
ABSTRACT
Modern programming languages provide some form of
module system for facilitating software structuring and
reuse. We propose mixin modules as a new construct for
module languages which permits recursive definitions to
span module boundaries, allowing significant freedom in
the distribution of types and functionality among
program units. Mixin modules are proposed specifically
for the programming language ML, incorporating recent
extensions to its module system. Mixin modules
additionally provide a form of inheritance analogous to
what is found in Object-Oriented Programming languages.
