C4ISR architectures: III. An object-oriented approach for architecture design

Abstract

A UML-based process for developing C4ISR architectures is presented. The process demonstrates the feasibility of developing architecture descriptions that conform to the C4ISR Architecture Framework based on an Object-Oriented paradigm. The process is illustrated through the same example that is used in the companion paper to illustrate the Structured Analysis approach so that comparisons can be made. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
