Abstract: EULISP has an integrated object system with
reflective capabilities. We discuss some example applications which
use these facilities to experiment with some advanced and powerful
concepts, namely, finalization, virtual shared memory and
persistence. A secondary goal is to attempt to illustrate the
additional possibilities of metaobject programming over non-metalevel
techniques.
Keywords: Eulisp, Telos, persistence, finalization, virtual
shared memory
