Since designing classes is often viewed as synonymous with designing abstract data types, there is every expectation that users experienced with abstract data type design will adapt easily to designing classes. Unfortunately, there is a growing awareness that the realty is contrary to the expectation; i.e., data type designing in a system with<br \/>\ninheritance is far more difficult than traditional books on data structures and data types have suggested. In object-oriented systems, designing is sometimes (but only rarely) concerned with the development of individual data types. It is more often concerned with the development of highly integrated families of data types and more generally communities of totally different but cohesive collections of data types that support specific applications; e.g., a compiler to pick a well-studied example.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/scs\/wp-content\/uploads\/TR-108.pdf\">TR-108.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carleton University Technical Report TR-108 February 1987 Designing Families of Data Types Using Exemplars Wilf R.
