| dc.description | Mixins are modules in which some components are deferred, that is, their definition has to be provided by another module. Moreover, in contrast to parameterized modules (like ML functors), mixin modules can be mutually dependent and their composition supports the redefinition of components (overriding). In this paper, we present a formal model of mixins and their basic composition operators. These operators can be viewed as a kernel language with clean semantics in which one can express more complex operators of existing modular languages, including variants of inheritance in object-oriented programming. Our formal model is given in an ‘institution independent’ way, that is, it is parameterized by the semantic framework modelling the underlying core language. |
