Need ref's on OO vs. Execution efficiency. Message-ID: <1989Nov13.163732.28890@paris.ics.uci.edu> Date: 14 Nov 89 00:37:32 GMT Reply-To: rfg@ics.uci.edu (Ron Guilmette) Organization: University of California, Irvine - Dept of ICS List-Id: I have commited myself to writing a paper about the effect on execution efficiency of using Object Oriented Languages (or perhaps even an OO design approach). I *must* have references, but there don't seem to be many in the literature that I have seen so far. I guess that most OO oriented people just assume that the benefits of OO far outweigh any possible loss of efficiency (or that there is no significant loss). (In fact I recall hearing one anecdote about how a C program was converted to C++ and the speed *increased* !!) Anyway, I'm in desparate need of a list of relevant references (which I must have by Wed. night at the latest). If you can help me, please E-mail your suggestions for references to: rfg@ics.uci.edu Thanks everybody. // rfg
