Object-Oriented Software Systems

About the group

The Object-Oriented Software Systems Group is based on the Scandinavian tradition for object-oriented programming, starting with Simula and BETA in the early 1970’ies. Today the group covers a wide range of research areas within software systems including:

• Pervasive computing, which is the focus of most research within the group
• Programming languages, including modelling and type theory
• Software architecture, including embbeded systems, distributed systems and safety critical systems
• Experimental system development, including object-oriented modeling, analysis, and design
• Software development tools, including compiles, virtual machines and tools based on partial evaluation
• Teaching of programming and other aspects of software systems.

The group is involved in a number of centers and large research projects, including Centre for Pervasive Computing, ISIS Katrinebjerg and Palcom. Previous projects include: The Mjølner Project, EuroCoOp, EuroCODE and Centre for Object-Technology.

Projects are often in close cooperation with industrial partnes.

The group is located in the IT-city Katrinebjerg in Hopper building together with the Alexandra Institute A/S.

The object-oriented software systems research group maintains a separate web site www.ooss.dk, from which the above description comes. Please visit that site for more information on the OOSS research group. Below is some shortcuts to our site:
