An Object-Oriented Approach to Incremental Delivery of Software Systems

  • Conference paper
Book cover OOIS’96

Abstract

Object-oriented analysis, usage scenarios, and incremental delivery (ID) all encourage user involvement in the system development process. This paper integrates these three into one unified approach called Object-Oriented Incremental Delivery or OOID. In this paper, we identify an object-oriented analysis approach, three algorithms for choosing deliverable increments, and a method for determining the implementation order for the increments. A simple library system is used to illustrate the approach.
