Advanced Object-Oriented Design 

Abstract: This lecture will cover advanced design aspect of object- 
oriented programming, using concrete examples. We will think about 
what polymorphism deeply implies and its effect on application design. 
We will revisit the exact semantics of self and super and their impact 
on frameworks construction. We will present the law of demeter, 
criteria to assess inheritance versus inheritance, the difference 
interfaces that a class present, double dispatch as well as some other 
design points such as the right way to handle preferences in large 
system. We will also discuss design pattern but in a non traditional 
way. 

Bests, 

Jordi
