Applying Object-Oriented Analysis and Design :ional analysis and design techniques imply constant paradigm shifts, since manipulate different concepts at each different phase of software developt. The object-oriented technique offers a seamless process that helps viewing the software architecture in terms of problem space elements. • • • • • • • • • This article presents an analysis and design technique relying on a set of notations and guidelines. It promotes a descriptive method that

Key criteria have guided the definition of the technique: scalability, reverse engineering support, documentation aid, structuring mechanisms, systematic design support and component management support. A case study shows how the technique works and fosters the production of reusable components.
