alpha ware Homepage Computer section of Mike's Homepage This part of my Homepage is intended to hold "professional" information regarding my interests & projects in Computer Science.

• Object Oriented Programming
• User Interfaces: Document-Orientation, Component ware (ex. OLE, Open/Doc, also Oberon)
• Computer Languages & Compiler development
• Development Tools: RAD, "Visual...", etc.
• and much more...

• c't, Computer & Technik - Simply the best general computer magazine in German
• BYTE - In my opinion the best general computer magazine in English
• Dr. Dobb's Journal - Software & Tools for Professional Programmers
• MSJ, Microsoft Systems Journal - Usefull to stay up to date with all those fancy Microsoft abbreviations
• C++ Report - The one and only source for the latest C++ developments
• iX - Multiuser Multitasking Magazin, in German
• OBJEKTspektrum - German OOP magazine

• AbaDoc: AbaDoc is a Cross Media Publishing Application (multi-target publishing system) which was developed for ABACUS Reserach AG. It now produces printed manuals, each about thousand pages long, two different on-line help systems (ASCII-DOS and Windows-HLP) and soon maybe PDF or HTML pages.

I have a lot of ideas & notes about a truely object oriented and integrated user interface.

A paper described those ideas is currently being prepared.

The following documents are currently prepared for on-line publishing:
