Class-Based Generalization and Class-Based Specialization
Abstract
This paper extends class-based generalization and class-based specialization. In the classbased generalization (specialization, respectively), the names of the attributes of the superclass (subclass) are changed according to the name of the superclass (subclass). Revised class-based generalization (specialization, respectively) permits subclasses to have the attributes whose names are the same as those of the attributes of the superclass (superclasses). This extension improves the representation capability through the class-based generalization and the class-based specialization.
