Abstract

Multiparadigm research is a relatively new direction in programming language design. In this paper we discuss several aspects of this research area. We consider some of the ideas that underlie the multiparadigm point of view, we examine some of the motivations behind the work being done and we consider some of the directions within this field of work. Finally we offer a short example that suggests the potential usefulness of combining several paradigms into one linguistic framework.
