Abstract

Smalltalk-80 is an object-oriented system promoting “programming by
reuse”. However, the complexity of the Smalltalk class library makes
it difficult for the non-expert user to find the problem-solving
class. This paper describes ClassExpert, a tool that helps to retrieve
classes matching the functional specification provided by the user.
ClassExpert deploys an attribute-value classifcation scheme with
taxonomies. This paper also shows how this scheme can be used to
support reuse by specialization and modification.

We've got lots of freedom and independence, but you are never on your own when you encounter problems.

Our lab is not only about research: we do a lot of development using Java, Python, Javascript, Haskell and other languages in combination with advanced libraries and frameworks. This development experience was very helpful during my job interviews, and employers were impressed by the projects we develop here in the lab.
