Abstract

The flo language integrates management of inter-object dependencies into the object oriented paradigms. In this paper, we focus on the use of reactive dependencies (links) in object-oriented knowledge representation. In particular, we present different meta-links (links between links) and show how the FLO links allow one to design some composition relationships.
