DEMETER SEMINAR
Adaptive and and Aspect-Oriented Programming
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The Demeter seminar meets this quarter on Wednesday in 149 Cullinane Hall,
Northeastern University, Boston
from 4.00-5.30 p.m. The topic this quarter will be
related to Adaptive Programming
http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/lieber/demeter.html
Aspect-Oriented Programming
http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/lieber/AOP.html
and topics related to the DARPA project AIRES
http://www.dist-systems.bbn.com/projects/AIRES/
in collaboration with the QuO group at BBN.
For students:
To get some background for
the seminar you should read the first four chapters of
http://www.ccs.neu.edu/research/demeter/biblio/dem-book.html
and a selection of the papers at:

Semantics of Traversals
Mitchell Wand
Traversals are ubiquitous and succinct traversal specifications
are popular both in the XML and Demeter communities.
Mitch will present a new and simpler semantics for
succinct traversal specifications. The semantics defines
an object graph slice (a subgraph) for an object graph and a
succinct traversal specification.
A preliminary discussion is at:

After the presentation by Mitch Wand we continue our tour through DJ.
http://www.ccs.neu.edu/research/demeter/DJ/
An interesting aspect of DJ is that severely crosscutting concerns
(structured multi-object collaborations) are expressed in
plain Java without any extension. This is not too surprising
because the DJ Java library makes heavy use of reflection.
