通过文档变形实现应用程序的快速演化和集成
Rapid Application Evolution and Integration Through Document Metamorphosis
摘要：
Harland文档管理系统实现了一个数据模型，在这个模型中，文档（对象）结构可以随时通过mixin风格的多重继承来改变。这种结构的流动性长期以来一直由知识库管理系统支持，但它的使用主要是支持推理和推断。在本文中，我们报告了我们的经验，建立和支持几个非平凡的应用程序上的这个数据模型。基于这些经验，我们认为，结构的流动性是方便的数据密集型应用程序以外的知识库管理。具体地说，我们认为这种灵活的数据模型非常适合使用企业组件框架时自然出现的解耦编程方法。
英文摘要：
The Harland document management system implements a data model in which document (object) structure can be altered by mixin-style multiple inheritance at any time. This kind of structural fluidity has long been supported by knowledge-base management systems, but its use has primarily been in support of reasoning and inference. In this paper, we report our experiences building and supporting several non-trivial applications on top of this data model. Based on these experiences, we argue that structural fluidity is convenient for data-intensive applications other than knowledge-base management. Specifically, we suggest that this flexible data model is a natural fit for the decoupled programming methodology that arises naturally when using enterprise component frameworks.
