Abstract

Three object-oriented analysis methodologies and three object-oriented design methodologies are reviewed and compared to one another. The authors' intent is to answer the question of whether emerging object-oriented analysis and design methodologies require incremental or radical changes on the part of prospective adopters. The evolution of conventional development methodologies is discussed, and three areas-system partitioning, end-to-end process modeling, and harvesting reuse-that appear to be strong candidates for further development work are presented.
