Objectory: The Unified Process

Ivar Jacobson, Rational Software Corporation

This tutorial introduces the Objectory process for component-based development. A better development process, in fact, a process unifying the best available practices, is the key to the software future. The proven Objectory process originally developed by Ivar Jacobson, now incorporating the work of Grady Booch, Jim Rumbaugh, Philippe Kruchten, Walker Royce, and other people inside Rational, answers this long-felt need. Component and object-based, Objectory enables reuse. Use-case driven, it closes the gap between what the user needs and what the developer does; it drives the development process. Architecture-centric, it guides the development process. Iterative and incremental, it manages risk. Represented in the design blueprints of the newly standardized Unified Modeling Language (UML), it communicates your results to a wide audience. Targeted at the basics, this introductory tutorial will bring you up to date.

Attendee Background: The attendees are expected to have experience in software development and some background in object technology.

Ivar Jacobson is inventor of the Objectory Process, and founder of Objectory AB, Sweden. He is currently VP of Business Engineering at Rational Software Corporation. He is a leader in the OO community, well known for his pioneering work and more than 30 years experience using object methods for the design of large real-time systems. He spent 25 years at Ericsson working on the AXE switching system, where he developed an architecture and a software engineering process to support extensive reuse. His early object-based design technique has evolved into the international CCITT/SDL Telecom standard. He is the principal author of three influential books, "Object-Oriented Software Engineering - a Use Case Driven Approach", "The Object Advantage: Business Process Reengineering Using Object Technology," and "Software Reuse: Architecture, Process and Organization for Business Success," as well as several widely referenced papers on object technology. His work on use-case engineering has influenced almost all of the OO methods in use today.
