Abstract

It is argued that the current focus on object technology is detrimental to progress in embedded systems. The core of the problem is that object orientation is fine for analysis but does not answer the design needs. Solutions for shortcomings are sought within the OO dogma. making things worse. This paper will outline a differnt approach and will discuss benefits of that approach relative to object orientation.
