A compiler for composition: CHAIMS
Louis Perrochon, Gio C. M. Wiederhold, R. Burback · 2002
CHAIMS supports an innovative paradigm in software engineering: composition. The CHAIMS programming language focuses solely on integrating so-called megamodules into new applications. In doing this, CHAIMS exploits existing or emerging standards for interoperation like CORBA, ActiveX, JavaBeans or DCE. The approach reduces software development and maintenance costs by actively supporting autonomy and reuse of megamodules.
