------------------------------------------------------
The Joint Modular Languages Conference deals with languages, techniques,
and tools for the design and implementation of large-scale software systems
in a modular and extensible way. It started out in 1989 as a Modula-2
conference with the aim of promoting modular software technology. Today
many languages and environments support this goal: Modula-3, Oberon, Ada95,
Eiffel, Sather and Java, to name just a few. The success of Object-Oriented
Technology and Componentware is a clear indication that industry is aware
of the importance of modularity and extensibility. This is the right
direction, but there is still much to do.
JMLC'97 will highlight new trends in modular software development and
cultivate the exchange of ideas among professionals, programmers, teachers
and researchers. Take the opportunity to meet old friends and make new
ones. I am looking forward to seeing you at JMLC'97 in Linz.

TUTORIALS
*********************************************************
The four tutorials on the first day of JMLC'97 offer an in-depth view on
hot topics in modular software development. They complement the technical
talks by providing broad and thorough coverage of a specific topic. The
tutorial presenters are recognized authorities in their fields and will
provide state-of-the-art information. Please note that we offer a special
discount for a second tutorial.
T1 Java -- The Best of Two Worlds?
-------------------------------
Josef Templ, Johannes Kepler University Linz, Austria
Wednesday, March 19, 9:30 - 13:00
This tutorial will cover the major aspects of Java programming and compare
them with concepts found in Oberon and C/C++. The participants will learn
how programming for the Net differs from traditional programming tasks and
how the Java approach works. In particular, the tutorial will encompass:
* the Java language, its features and restrictions
* the Java byte code
* the design of the Java virtual machine
* the byte code verifier
* the class loader
* interpretation and just-in-time compilation
* the standard Java library
* HTML applets and stand-alone programs
* security managers
Josef Templ received his PhD in 1994 from ETH Zurich for his work on
Metaprogramming in Oberon. He is now an independent software developer and
gives lectures at the University of Linz and at the Fachhochschule
Hagenberg. Besides well-known products such as Ofront, an Oberon-to-C
translator, he developed the world's first Java just-in-time compiler fora
RISC platform.
T2 Advanced Programming in Modula-3
--------------------------------
Laszlo Boeszoermenyi, University of Klagenfurt, Austria
Wednesday, March 19, 9:30 - 13:00
Modula-3 is the high-end successor of Modula-2. Besides a clean and mature
set of structured and object-oriented programming features, Modula-3 also
supports programming in the large in an excellent way. The tutorial will
concentrate on the advanced features of Modula-3, such as:
* modules: multiple interfaces and implementations, generic modules;
* concurrent and parallel programming: threads, mutex-objects, "network
objects" (for type safe method calls between different address spaces);
* persistence: interfaces for I/O communication, the "pickle" interface for
automatic storing and loading of any dynamic data structures to/from
secondary storage or the network;
* graphics: a graphical environment available under Unix and Windows/NT.
Laszlo Boeszoermenyi is professor of Computer Science at the University of
Klagenfurt. His current research focuses on object-oriented and parallel
systems, where he uses Modula-3. He is an author of the book "Programming
in Modula-3 -- An Introduction in Programming with Style"
T3 Design Patterns for Object-Oriented Software Development
--------------------------------------------------------
Wolfgang Pree, University of Constance, Germany
Wednesday, March 19, 14:30 - 18:00
Design patterns support the development and reuse of extensible OO software
components. They represent a complementary enhancement of existing OO
analysis and design (OOAD) methods. The tutorial will give an overview of
state-of-the-art design pattern approaches, including pattern catalogs and
framework patterns. A selection of useful patterns will be discussed in
detail. The tutorial will also introduce hot spot cards, which have proved
to be a useful communications vehicle between domain experts and software
engineers in order to exploit the potential of design patterns. In the
early development phases hot spot cards help to capture those system
aspects that have to be kept flexible. Case studies will illustrate how to
apply design patterns.
Wolfgang Pree is a professor at the University of Constance. He is the
author of "Design Patterns for Object-Oriented Software Development"
(Addison-Wesley/ACM-Press, 1995) and of "Framework Patterns" (SIGS Books,
1996).
T4 Component-Oriented Programming and the Oberon/F Component Framework
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Clemens Szyperski, QUT Brisbane, Australia
Wednesday, March 19, 14:30 - 18:00
Components are not objects. The primary concern with components is
composability, enabling the combination of off-the-shelf components with
newly developed custom components. Programming of components has to go
beyond programming of objects in many ways. The first part of this tutorial
will cover the requirements and mention some of the shortcomings of
traditional object-oriented approaches. Based on these general
observations, a particular RAD tool and framework, from the beginning
designed with components in mind, will be introduced: Oberon/F. Three
fundamental properties make Oberon/F an interesting object of study.
Oberon/F is based on a document architecture that is flexible enough to
cover both OpenDoc and OLE. Oberon/F is a cross-platform rapid application
development (RAD) tool not limited to forms-based design, due to a general
container abstraction. Finally, Oberon/F still supports efficient direct
access to platform-specific facilities where needed. For example, the
Oberon/F Direct-To-COM compiler provides automatic garbage collection for
COM objects and thereby greatly simplifies the creation of COM objects. All
of these aspects of Oberon/F will be covered in the tutorial and briefly
demonstrated.
Prof. Clemens Szyperski is a faculty member of the School of Computing
Science and director of the Programming Languages and Systems Research
Concentration, Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia.

Linz is located at the Danube, in the heart of Austria right between
Vienna and Salzburg. It is surrounded by the gentle hills of the
Bohemian landscape to the north, and by the rising Alps and the famous
Salzkammergut with its lakes to the west. Linz is not only famous for
its Ars Electronica Festival, but also for Mozart's Linzer Symphony, for
the composer Anton Bruckner, and for the astronomer Johannes Kepler.
Linz has an own airport with direct flights to most cities in Germany
and Switzerland, as well as connections to all destinations worldwide
with stopover in Vienna. Connections to Vienna are 2 hours by train or
car.
The conference will take place in the medieval castle of Hagenberg, an
exclusive conference center and software park 20 km to the north of
