Meta-Level Architectures and Reflection: Second International Conference, Reflection'99 Saint-Malo, France, July 19-21, 1999 Proceedings (Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 1616)

This Book Constitutes The Refereed Proceedings Of The Second International Conference On Meta-level Architectures And Reflection, Reflection'99, Held In St. Malo, France In July 1999. The 13 Revised Full Papers Presented Were Carefully Selected From 44 Submissions. Also Included Are Six Short Papers And The Abstracts Of Three Invited Talks. The Papers Are Organized In Sections On Programming Languages, Meta Object Protocols, Middleware/multi-media, Work In Progress, Applications, And Meta-programming. The Volume Covers All Current Issues Arising In The Design And Analysis Of Reflective Systems And Demontrates Their Practical Applications. Invited Talk 1 -- Reflection In Real-time Systems -- Programming Languages -- From Dalang To Kava - The Evolution Of A Reflective Java Extension -- Jumping To The Meta Level -- The Oberon-2 Reflection Model And Its Applications -- Meta Object Protocols (mops) -- Designing Persistence Libraries In Reflective Models With Intercession Property For A Client-server Environment -- Non-functional Policies -- Invited Talk 2 -- On The Reflective Structure Of Information Networks -- Middleware/multi Media -- Reflective Media Space Management Using Rascal -- The Design Of A Resource-aware Reflective Middleware Architecture -- Work In Progress (short Papers) -- A Formal Analysis Of Smithsonian Computational Reflection -- Reflection For Dynamic Adaptability: A Linguistic Approach Using Lead++ -- Networking And Reflection: A Strong Combination -- Towards Systematic Synthesis Of Reflective Middleware -- An Automatic Aspect Weaver With A Reflective Programming Language -- Using Compile-time Reflection For Objects’state Capture -- Invited Talk 3 -- Past, Present, And Future Of Aperios -- Applications (experience Papers) -- Reflecting Java Into Scheme -- Jcontractor: A Reflective Java Library To Support Design By Contract -- Opencorba: A Reflective Open Broker -- Ompc++ — A Portable High-performance Implementation Of Dsm Using Openc++ Reflection -- Meta-programming -- Metaprogramming Domain Specific Metaprograms -- Aspect-oriented Logic Meta Programming.
