Abstract

In support of flexible composition, components need to be adaptable and they need to have first-class plugs. Abstract state machines and object-oriented programming each satisfy one of these requirements very well but satisfy the other only incompletely. This paper describes views, a language construct which provides for both requirements in a balanced way.
