I am currently researching my thesis which is on Object-Orientated Programming and software reusabilty and I was wondering whether anyone had any good references or Papers on software-reusability or OOP in general. Also does anyone know of any FTP sites containing OOP material, preferably in Turbo Pascal. Thanks in advance mwirth@gara.une.oz.au

Books, Cox, Brad J., and Novobilski, Andrew J., "Object-Oriented Programming, An Evolutionary Approach", second Edition. Addison-Wesley. Biggerstaff, Ted J., and Perlis, Alan J., "Software Reusability", Volumes 1 & 2 ACM Press. (a collection of papers (vol. 1 Concepts and Models, vol. 2 Applications and Experiences") These books do not concentrate as much on OO techniques, but if you would like to see other approaches to reuse, this may be a good source. Cox, Brad J., "Planning the Software Industrial Revolution", IEEE Software Magazine, Nov. 1990. Jacobson, Ivar, "Object Oriented Development in an Industrial Environment", OOPSLA '87 Proceedings. Jacobson, Ivar, "Industrial Development of Software with Object-Oriented Technique", JOOP March/April 1991. Barnes, Bruce H., and Bollinger, Terry B., "Making Reuse Cost-Effective", IEEE Software, January 1991. Here is where things get a little fuzzy .. There was an paper in the 1990 OOPSLA procedings on ET++ that may also be of some use. I hope that this is a good start. -- The Stepstone Corporation Andy Klapper 75 Glen Rd. andyk@stepstone.com Sandy Hook, CT 06482 uunet!stpstn!andyk (203) 426-1875 fax (203)270-0106

The "Computer Select" database [previously known as "Computer Library"] lists about 2000 magazine articles referencing "object oriented" of which about 150 also specifically refer to "reuse" or "reusability" Fortunately, this database is CD-ROM based, so you don't have to blow your budget to list all these references [just make sure you have the disc space :-]
