Biggerstaff and Perlis have compiled two volumes reflecting advances in software reusability. This comprehensive set includes both theoretical and practical contributions from the leaders in this emerging field - many written or rewritten specifically for these books. Each contribution speaks directly to the growing demands in software engineering to enhance productivity and reduce costs.Volume I, Concepts and Models, provides a framework for understanding software reusability. It begins with an overview and assessment of reusability, then presents a variety of composition- based and generation-based systems that explain the principles underlying the new methodology and illustrate its critical place in large-scale programming projects. 0201080176B04062001

The essays in this book present programs that go beyond solid engineering techniques to be creative and clever solutions to computer problems. The programs are fun and teach important programming tecniques and fundamental design principles.

A growing interest in the object-oriented programming paradigm prompted the editors to compile a wide-ranging introduction to the subject, beginning with basic concepts and then covering a variety of applications in databases and other areas. Most of the contributions, by leading figures in the field, were written specifically for this volume. Topics include object-oriented programming languages, application systems, operational object-oriented database systems,architectural issues, and directions in future research and development.

Object-Oriented Concepts, Databases, and Applications

Kim, Won

A major challenge facing computer science is the need to develop algorithms and software tools to harness the vast power of parallel and vector computers. This book provides in-depth treatment of modern restructuring tools, called supercompilers, which detect the implicit concurrency in programs written in languages such as Fortran and transform these into equivalent concurrent code. This book also features a comprehensive discussion of the methods of program analysis and optimization, including control flow analysis, data flow analysis, and data dependence analysis. Plus, a detailed account of advanced techniques for program transformation, specifically for vectorization and parallelization in both shared-memory and distributed-memory computers.
