============================================================

April 28:

Johan Ovlinger on TAO

Johan has added traversals as objects to Demeter/Java.
You can now compute traversal strategies under program control.
The benefit: more flexibility when you need it; the price:
less efficient program execution.

Time permitting:
Brief updates on other projects by involved team members.

Planned talks May 5:

Binoy Samuel on "Software architecture"

CMU has an active program in software architecture: See
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/project/compose/www/html/Publications/1.html


Karl Lieberherr on "What is an aspect"

While I was at Xerox PARC we had some interesting discussions 
on aspects. We would like to separate aspects from other software
structuring mechanisms and this turns out not to be easy.


Karl Lieberherr on "GenVoca"

The work of Don Batory on software composition is useful for
composing programs. We will discuss an application to Demeter/Java
to solve the repetition class implementation selection problem.
