Abstract
Examines the effectiveness of applying object-oriented programming (OOP) methodologies to the synthesis and implementation of artificial neural networks (ANN). Included in the discussion are the range of potential mappings between OOP and ANN methodologies, OOP based development environments for ANN, and OOP based ANN description languages. The effectiveness of each of these strategies and their effect upon the development cycle is explored. The run-time performance penalties incurred by using object-oriented languages and systems is reported and includes a summary of experimental results
