Object-Oriented Systems Analysis, A Model-Driven Approach

This book presents a new technique for analyzing software systems using an "object-oriented" approach. The technique is based on proven methods of data modelling and system behaviour specification that have been successfully applied to software problems ranging from traditional data processing to real-time system control. Intended for systems analysts, the software project manager, programmers, consultants, university-level computer science students, and other computer professionals, the book explains how to use powerful object-oriented techniques for creating, organizing and analyzing system software specifications. Several examples of real-life system problems are presented that should be familiar to most audiences. It is suitable for use as a supplement to a university-level computer science course concerning systems analysis and related topics.
