Abstract
This paper provides a comparative study of the object-oriented approach by evaluating object-oriented methodologies, and exploring future object-oriented research directions. Six representative object-oriented methodologies are evaluated based on their capabilities in aiding object-oriented analysis and design. The capability criteria used for this evaluation are object modeling, state modeling, process modeling, object-oriented design, and object-oriented model integrity. In addition to the methodology evaluation, we also discuss some interesting future research, and our work.
