....because the LOAN actions need not change the state vectors of members or documents. Moreover, the structure of the model is simplified by doing this. The communication structure of a UoD model can be quite dense, which leads to the so called ravioli problem noted in objectoriented modelling [43]: Each class specification is easily understandable in isolation, but the interaction between classes is a dense bundle of communications that is hard to keep track of. The modelling guideline we can extract from this is the following: ffl If this is possible without violating the rule that ....

....had on our software development. 2 The Object Oriented Paradigm The OO paradigm has recently attracted attention because of its promise for code re use and ease of maintainence, in addition to the natural and intuitive language it promotes for discussion of software problems and their solutions [15]. 2.1 OO concepts Software development using the OO paradigm [3, 13] includes the same three phases that are used in other software engineering methodologies: analysis (OOA) design (OOD) and programming (OOP) In OOA, OOD, and OOP, the concept of class and object is critical. A class is an ....

....proprietary systems are inclined to be incompatible with existing ones. Emerald was never intended to be running enterprise applications on global WANs. Rather, it demonstrated the viability of transferring executing processes to different address spaces on different nodes using the Smalltalk [29] object oriented programming model. Another important discovery of this research was that moving objects which are used by processes are not simple problems. There is no best solution for distributed computing. Like all difficult problems there are lots of compromises. Telescript was dropped by ....

....Vol. III, pp. 826 830, Austin, TX, November 13 16, 1994. 1. INTRODUCTION The object oriented (OO) paradigm has recently attracted attention because of its promise for code reuse and ease of maintainence, in addition to the natural and intuitive language it promotes for discussion of software [3]. Wehave built and described an OO graphical programming tool [1] that allows a user to connect icons, which represent data transforms, on a canvas in order to define a data flow diagram that acts on a user defined object parameterization. In this paper, we describe an extension of the graphical ....

.... Zachman, 1987) The CIM OSA architecture identifies several such representational requirements (Jorysz and Vernadat, 1990) Separation of the perspectives or views of a business process into a number of separate models is an un natural representation method (Barnett, et al. 1994; Martin, 1989; Taylor, 1990). The distinct pieces of a business process exist and have meaning as a single unit. Curtis et al. 1992) also identifies the issue of model verification and validity. Traditional representations must be manually integrated to ensure completeness and validity (Yourdon, 1989; Yourdon, 1994) The ....

....environment. Interfaces must be built or semantics internalized to support the flow of material and information within a virtual enterprise or across divergent functional areas in an agile firm. Each adjustment to the business process requires adjustment to the process model (Curtis, et al. 1992; Taylor, 1990). Barnett et al. (1994) have suggested that the virtual enterprise, or any environment characterized by fast paced change, should be modeled as a series of interrelated component parts. Business processes are would in essence be modeled as black boxes (Schoderbek, Schoderbek, and Keflas, 1990) ....

....etc. or abstract concepts (e.g. University Board of Studies meeting) Software objects are self contained modules that include data (instance variables) and code that acts on that data (methods) Instance variables are everything an object knows , and methods are everything an object can do [Taylo91]. An object is an instance of a class, where classes are descriptions of things, objects are the things themselves [Winbl90] The state of an object can be defined as the values of an object s instance variables at any point in time. Alternatively, it may be defined as the result(s) returned ....

.... Some examples [Kim90a] include class and object (instance of) generalisation (is a) aggregation (classcomposition) composition (part of) and versioning (version of) Each object, therefore, can have a number of different roles (depending on which relationship we view it from) [Taylo91] has noted that an ODBMS can support any number of alternative structures for the same set of data, and that these structures are not simply views of the data superimposed on a single underlying model (viz. relational) but are all equally valid and exist independently of each other.
