    Object-oriented analysis and design (OOAD) is a prevailing software development methodology that involves three key aspects: object-oriented analysis (OOA) which defines system requirements and architecture, object-oriented design (OOD) which translates the architecture into programming constructs, and object-oriented programming (OOP) which implements these constructs. The fundamental idea is to break complex systems into interacting objects that combine data and functions, modeling real-world instances. A typical OO system consists of cooperating objects that may collaborate to achieve tasks, providing a natural way to break problems into isolated, manageable parts and enabling faster development of flexible, modifiable, and maintainable systems.

    Object-oriented analysis and design (OOAD) is a software engineering approach that

    models a system as a group of interacting objects. Each object represents some entity of
    interest in the system being modeled, and is characterised by its class, its state (data
    elements), and its behavior. Various models can be created to show the static structure,
    dynamic behavior, and run-time deployment of these collaborating objects. There are a
    number of different notations for representing these models, such as the Unified Modeling
    Language (UML).

    Object-oriented analysis (OOA) applies object-modeling techniques to analyze the


    functional requirements for a system. Object-oriented design (OOD) elaborates the
    analysis models to produce implementation specifications. OOA focuses on what
    the system does, OOD on how the does it

    Object-oriented systems
    An object-oriented system is composed of objects. The behavior of the system results from
    the collaboration of those objects. Collaboration between objects involves them sending
    messages to each other. Sending a message differs from calling a function in that when a
    target object receives a message, it itself decides what function to carry out to service that
    message. The same message may be implemented by many different functions, the one
    selected depending on the state of the target object.

    The implementation of "message sending" varies depending on the architecture of the system
    being modeled, and the location of the objects being communicated with.

    Object-oriented analysis
    Object-oriented analysis (OOA) looks at the problem domain, with the aim of producing a
    conceptual model of the information that exists in the area being analyzed. Analysis models
    do not consider any implementation constraints that might exist, such as concurrency,
    distribution, persistence, or how the system is to be built. Implementation constraints are
    dealt with during object-oriented design (OOD). Analysis is done before the Design.

    The sources for the analysis can be a written requirements statement, a formal vision
    document, interviews with stakeholders or other interested parties. A system may be divided
    into multiple domains, representing different business, technological, or other areas of
    interest, each of which are analyzed separately.

    The result of object-oriented analysis is a description of what the system is functionally


    required to do, in the form of a conceptual model. That will typically be presented as a set of
    use cases, one or more UML class diagrams, and a number of interaction diagrams. It may
    also include some kind of user interface mock-up.

    Object-oriented design
    Main article: Object oriented design

    Object-oriented design (OOD) transforms the conceptual model produced in object-oriented


    analysis to take account of the constraints imposed by the chosen architecture and any non-
    functional – technological or environmental – constraints, such as transaction throughput,
    response time, run-time platform, development environment, or programming language.

    The concepts in the analysis model are mapped onto implementation classes and interfaces.
    The result is a model of the solution domain, a detailed description of how the system is to be
    built.

    system does it.

    Object-Oriented Analysis & Design

    Object-oriented analysis and design (OOAD) is the principal industry-proven


    methodology for developing high-quality object-oriented systems. This prevailing
    software development methodology involves three aspects: object-oriented analysis
    (OOA), which deals with the design requirements and overall architecture of a
    system, and is focused on describing what the system should do in terms of key
    objects in the problem domain; object-oriented design (OOD), which translates a
    system architecture into programming constructs (such as interfaces, classes, and
    method descriptions); and object-oriented programming (OOP), which implements
    these programming constructs.

    The fundamental idea behind an object-oriented (OO) language is object


    decomposition, breaking the complex software system down into its various objects,
    combining the data and the functions that operate on the data into a single unit, the
    object. Objects are discussed and built by modeling real-world instances. A typical
    OO system consists of a number of cooperating objects, each of which may or may
    not collaborate with other objects in order to achieve some task for the user. Real-
    world objects display the characteristic of high cohesion, they maintain a single
    theme or focus, in turn, software objects model real-world objects. This form of
    object decomposition provides a natural way of breaking the problem down into
    isolated, manageable parts. In many cases, the development effort shifts from
    writing a new code, to assembling existing objects in new and innovative ways to
    solve a problem. Thus, object-oriented analysis and design methodology cuts down
    development time and costs, leading to faster time to market and significant
    competitive advantage, and enables producing more flexible, modifiable, easily
    maintainable object-oriented systems.
