Thanks for your answer Lew

- Yes there's a typo 'Objet' instead of 'Object', not a big deal

- Regarding the !! and 'semantic network' question, here's my answer:
!! is because an Object Model with a single class may seem foolish/
dummy/useless/stoopid but in fact it's may also be considered:
- as a creative  challenge
- moreover as a way to show that it(s not mandatory that the
usefulness of an object model resideds in it's API (the default
assumption), but instead in the semantic network of instances that you
can build with it, that's the main idea within SCOM: it's instances
are easily assembled in a semantic network by using triples as the
semantic atom (Subject --predicayte--> Object, like RDF which is the
foundation of Semantic Web)

- The relation with Java is to highlight that Java has a buildtime/
static object model (instances are dynamic/runtime but classes are
static/buildtime) and that there is another paradigm called AOM
(Adaptative Object Model) where classes are dynamic too. SCOM is an
illustration that this paradigm can be implemented on top of Java thus
opening new possibilities which are not reachable with a static object
model
