Abstract

This paper presents a case study that demonstrates howobject-oriented design techniques can be used to solve a processorsimulation problem. This case study stems from an actual processorsimulation assignment that was given to students in a junior-levelSystem Software class at Texas Tech University, a class bothauthors took as first semester transfer students. We found thatexposure to the objectoriented programming paradigm during ourfirst two years of college provided us with a powerful tool thatcan be used to design and implement solutions to complex problemsin a very natural manner.
