Abstract
This paper presents a simple programming system based on a clear separation of value-oriented programming and object-oriented programming [MacLennan82, MacLennan83a]. The value-oriented component is a conventional functional programming language. The object-oriented component is based on a model of objects and values connected by relations, and on production system-like rules that determine the alteration of these relations through time. It is shown that these few basic ideas permit simple prototyping of a software development environment.
