Reuse in the telecommunication domain using object oriented technology and Ada
Anders Sixtensson, Wenchuan Ye · 1990
An overall object oriented method supporting all steps from a given requirement specification to an implementation in Ada is presented.The method is formulated from the experiences when extending POTS (Plain Ordinary Telephony Service) with a number of new service features on a prototyping system.Reuse is achieved on different levels.System Interactive Diagrams (SID) and Object Interactive Diagrams (OID) are used to transform the initial functional requirement into an object oriented model.An extended version of SDL called OSDL (Object oriented SDL) and Ada are chosen as specification, design and implementation tools.Ada multi sublibraries are studied for reuse.The paper is produced at the Department of Communication Systems at Lund Institute of Technology in the research project ARISE (A Reuse Infrastructure for Software Engineering) which is part of the RACE (research in Advanced Communication Technologies in Europe) programme.
