ROOTS: Research on Object-Oriented Technologies and Systems

Welcome to the ROOTS group at the Computer Science Department III of the University of Bonn. Our work in the domain of tools, programming languages, run-time systems and component models is largely driven by the goal to provide better support for unanticipated software evolution at different stages of the software lifecycle.

Current research topics:

• Aspect-oriented language design
• Aspect language analysis
• Program and model transformations infrastructures
• Transformation dependency analysis and composition
• Refactoring of OO and AO programs
• Design pattern libraries

Current courses:

• "Aspect-oriented Software Development" (lectures and practical training)
• "Objektorientierte Software-Entwicklung" (lectures and practical training)
• "Object Oriented Software Construction" (lectures and practical training)
• "Mobile Mensch-Maschine Interaktion (MobileCHI), SS 2008" (seminar)
• "Research Topics in AOSD" (diploma-thesis preparation course)

Upcoming courses:

• "Software Engineering" (lectures and practical training)
• "Agile Software Development" (practical agile course, four weeks, 8 hours / day)
