Abstract

A description of two fundamentally distinct techniques for the implementation of abstract data types within Modular C, a preprocessor extension of C. Issues of reusability, environmental design, and efficiency are discussed as criteria for the selection of a target form for abstract data types. Automated conversion of one sort of abstract data type to the other is investigated.
