Towards structural decomposition of reflection with mirrors
2011
Proceedings of the International Workshop on Smalltalk Technologies - IWST '11
Mirrors are meta-level entities introduced to decouple reflection from the base-level system. Current mirror-based systems focus on functional decomposition of reflection. In this paper we advocate that mirrors should also address structural decomposition. Mirrors should not only be the entry points of reflective behavior but also be the storage entities of metainformation. This decomposition can help resolve issues in terms of resource constraints (e.g. embedded systems and robotics) or
