Abstract

Within software development, object-oriented (OO) analysis provides an incremental and iterative approach to guide the requirements definition, design, and development of software-intensive systems. OO analysis uses the Unified Modeling Language (UML) to capture and represent these requirements. UML permits specification of the product independent of programming language or development process. This independent product representation has raised interest in the systems engineering community: OO methods might be a mechanism to unite product development disciplines and remove the gap between the specified and as-built products. The paper discusses the object oriented systems engineering process.
