Abstract

In software engineering, object-oriented development is today the most popular programming, design and analysis approach. However, object orientation does not manage to address the needs of today's software construction in as radical and fundamental a way as is needed in highly distributed interoperating software applications. In the following, we argue that object orientation indeed offers interesting features, but continues to suffer from a number of severe shortcomings for the engineering of large distributed software systems. This shows that object-oriented techniques of today are not in accordance with the state of the art in scientific, well understood, programming methodology and software engineering.
