A Semantics for Object-Oriented Systems

Year: 1998

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Current object-oriented design notations such as OMT [14], Booch [3] and UML [16] are syntax-bound and semantic-free in the sense that they typically employ a large and rigorously enforceable collection of construction rules, but rarely provide a model to explain what is being constructed. Whilst this omission clearly does not prevent such notations being used effectively in the development of object-oriented software systems, it must raise questions regarding the long-term viability of notations which are not adequately anchored in a semantic theory.
