Abstract

This paper describes a UML-based process model (called Booster*Process) for system development founded on business object technology. It integrates business and software engineering aspects, describes the specific modeling activities needed for business and software system modeling and connects the various UML diagrams, particularly taking into consideration the requirements of business objects and their component character. It propagates a multi-level approach, starting with use case, activity and class modeling at the organizational level, and then shifting to analysis and design of business applications.
