William R. Cook spends much of his time researching Programming language, Inheritance, Theoretical computer science, Subtyping and Composition over inheritance.
His Programming language study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Database server.
Correctness and Recursive definition is closely connected to Denotational semantics in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Inheritance.
His research integrates issues of Orchestration, Operational semantics, The Internet and Computation in his study of Theoretical computer science.
His Composition over inheritance study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Trait, Encapsulation, Object-based language and Class-based programming.
The concepts of his Smalltalk study are interwoven with issues in Mixin and Class hierarchy.
His most cited work include:
- Mixin-based inheritance (730 citations)
- F-bounded polymorphism for object-oriented programming (289 citations)
- Inheritance is not subtyping (220 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Programming language, Theoretical computer science, Inheritance, Object-oriented programming and Software engineering.
His research related to Operational semantics, Programming paradigm, Denotational semantics, Correctness and Functional programming might be considered part of Programming language.
William R. Cook has researched Theoretical computer science in several fields, including Method, Static analysis, Component and Search algorithm.
The Inheritance study combines topics in areas such as Subtyping, Recursion, Smalltalk and Class-based programming.
His Smalltalk research includes elements of Inheritance hierarchy, Composition over inheritance and Type inheritance.
