Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Given two behavior descriptions,the question whether one is a specialization of the other is important in many situations. Sometimes it must be checked whether the behavior of an implementation is a specialization of the specification.A two- level model for the evolution of large object-oriented specifications is introducecd.The first level deals with the dynamic modifications of types(classes),while the second level deals with modifications of modules.We have defined a set of structural and behavioral constraints to ensure the specification consistency after its modification at both levels.To allow for dynamic modification of types and modules,we have developed a reflective object-oriented specification language which use meta- objects to support the modification operations.In this language, types and modules are objects.
