Hi, It has been recognized that JSD could be integrated with Booch's OO design. However, I have not seen any publication that compares JSD with OOD and thus discuss their integration. If anyone has seen some work related to this issue, would you please let me know the pointers to the work. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Xiping Song

I believe Booch made a passing comment to the effect that JSD might work as a front end to OOD in his classic "Object Oriented Development" paper, _TSE_, Feb, 1986. But I'm not sure he still feels that way as there's no such mention in his 1991 text, _OOD with Applications_. Are you out there, Grady? In any case, I do know of a paper comparing the two methodologies. "JSD and Object Oriented Design" by Birchenough and Cameron It appears in _JSP & JSD: The Jackson Approach to System Development_, 2nd edition, IEEE Computer Society Press. The book has a 1989 copyright date, but the paper _feels_ older. Its latest reference is Booch's paper cited above. > > Xiping Song *------------------------------------------------------------------------------* Jim McKim (203)-548-2458 | _Give_ people fish and they eat for a day.

I will have a paper in Data and Knowledge Engineering called Steps Towards a Method for the Formal Modeling of Dynamic Objects, by the end of this year or the beginning of the next. It analyzes JSFD on its usefulness as an OO analysis method. I don't consider Booch's design method really. I will have another paper in an IFIP conference to be held in Quebec City in october this year, in which I compare OO analysis with structured analysis. The proceedings will be published by North-Holland. I could email you these papers in source format (troff -ms and Latex, respectively), if you are interested. Roel
