What Is Object Technology?


A set of principles
(abstraction,
encapsulation,
polymorphism) guiding
software construction,
together with languages,
databases, and other tools
that support those
principles. (Object
Technology - A Managers
Guide, Taylor, 1997.)

Where Is Object Technology


Used?
Client/Server Systems and Web Development
Object technology
allows companies to encapsulate business information
in objects and helps to distribute processing across the
Internet or a network.

Contd
Real-time systems
Object technology enables real-time
systems to be developed with higher quality
and flexibility.

Differences Between OO and


Structured Design
Object-orientation (OO)
Melds the data and data flow process together early in
the lifecycle
Has a high level of encapsulation
Promotes reuse of code differently
Permits more software extensibility
