Pluggable Controllers and Nano-Patterns

Pluggable Controllers and Nano-Patterns in Java with Lola

“…• We further discuss the concept of nano-patterns (from now on nanos), introduced in previous works [1] as recurring solutions adopted by developers, to common tasks that involve control constructors.…”

“…A recent publication [1] described a preliminary new perspective of viewing keywords such as if and while as library functions such as printf: standardized, but user extendable and replaceable. In this work, we expand on this vision, demonstrating the extension of Java with control keywords for two applications: a stenography for a concrete nano-patterns language whose prevalence in Java was previously demonstrated [2] and the implementation of Mathematica-like control structure in Java.…”
