Next generation object-oriented programming languages: extending the paradigm

Introduction This workshop was a continuation, in part, of the workshop of the OOPSLA'92 workshop entitled " Object-Oriented Programming Languages: The Next Generation " in which features and capabilities of next generation languages were explored. This year's workshop was to focus on extensions to the object-oriented paradigm that make it more robust or incorporate other paradigms. The approach was to form discussion groups on sub-topics and present the results of discussion back to the group as a whole. The definition of sub-topics was achieved through grouping a list of issues developed in an initial brain-storming session. The three sub-topics and associated issues are outlined below.
