Object Orientation with Parallelism and Persistence / edited by Burkhard Freitag, Cliff B. Jones, Christian Lengauer, Hans-Jörg Schek.

Both object orientation and parallelism are modern programming paradigms which have gained much popularity in the last 10-15 years. Object orientation raises hopes for increased productivity of software generation and maintenance methods. Parallelism can serve to structure a problem but also promise...
