An Object-oriented Foundation for Desktop Computing

Integration based on low-level interoperability of autonomous software components causes a number of problems which hurt both user productivity and performance. In this paper, we propose an object-oriented foundation for architecturing next-generation desktop computing systems which should reduce, if not eliminate, these problems. This foundation provides extensible, protected and transparent management of distributed persistent objects. We use the example of next-generation hypermedia systems to illustrate our design choices. We also report on our computing environment prototype which implements solutions to some of the issues facing this foundation.
