Abstract

Facilities for defining generic object types, generic type categories, generic functions and generic procedures in an object-oriented ASM are described in the paper. These facilities permit one to specify algorithms over complex data structures abstracting both from the type of the structure components and the structure itself. The use of the facilities is demonstrated by the specifications of some important parts of Standard Template Library for C++.
