....development process as a whole is discussed. Section 2.3 explores further the concept of paradigm in software development revealing another level at which paradigms can be considered. 2. 1 The Meaning of Paradigm The term paradigm in science generally is strongly related to Kuhn and his work [Kuh97] Although not explicitly de ned in this essay, it leaves reader with understanding of paradigm similar to this quoted from [BN97] A paradigm in general is a body of ways of formulating problems, methodological tools of their solution, standard methodologies of their elaboration. It is ....
....programming) Finally, procedures were put together with the data it operated on: classes objects (object oriented programming) However, according to Kuhn, paradigms do not evolve, although it can seem so. He speaks of the scienti c revolution which ends up the old and starts a new paradigm [Kuh97] A paradigm is dominant by de nition and thus there can be only one paradigm at a time in a given eld. This is a contradiction with the existence of ve or more software development paradigms indicating that the eld is either in the unstable state, either all these paradigms are part of one ....

....in earlier chapters. We analyze an application, assuming that the object paradigm is the best suited paradigm, by using principles of commonality and variability to derive design abstractions. 5. 1 About Paradigms and Objects The term paradigm, rst popularized by Kuhn in his classic book [Kuhn1970], became a household word in software with the popularization of the object paradigm. A paradigm is a set of conventions we use to understand the world around us. In software, paradigms shape the way we formulate abstractions. What is your world made of Do you divide the world into ....
....a paradigm by most contemporary computer scientists. First, its worth reviewing in a nutshell what the spectrum of meanings is for the word paradigm, what part of that spectrum received the attention of this thesis, and what that portends for the rest. The term was originally popularized by Kuhn [Kuhn1970], and has much broader meaning than we nd in computer science. In Kuhns work, a paradigm is a Weltanschang: a world model. It is a deeper and broader concept than any notion of paradigm in contemporary computer science. The opinion of many experts in contemporary computer science (including Larry ....
