ABSTRACT

Object Oriented technology, especially Object Oriented Programming (OOP), has recently become very popular in a number of contexts, and for various applications. However, there have been relatively few reports of using OO Methods (OOM) for concurrent and real time systems (CRTS). Moreover, it has often been claimed that Ada 83 is an inappropriate language for doing OOP. This paper briefly reports successful use of OOM, with Ada, in a variety of CRTS, including a concurrent approach to discrete event simulation. Results show there are substantial benefits to using OOM with Ada, contradicting popular myth. Object Oriented Design and Implementation (OOD&I), versus OOP, is superior for developing large, complex software systems, and is better supported by Ada 83 than by “true” OO languages.
