Abstract

The paper discusses the problems to be tackled while designing conversation schemes for concurrent object oriented languages (COOLs). Some approaches to solving these problems and to using conversations in COOLs in the most appropriate ways are proposed. The most relevant characteristics of these languages with respect to conversation scheme design are outlined. The paper attempts to define all accessories of the conversation concept within the concurrent object oriented paradigm. It is considered how the peculiarities of COOLs (such as inheritance, concurrency control, reuse of the concurrency control code) can facilitate the use of conversation schemes. Worthwhile directions of future research are pointed out.
