OOA—Analysis and Mission
3.1 Introduction
We have combined the object-oriented approach and the scientific ap-
proach and developed three simple descriptions or rather expectations:
RO, ROApp, and ROAF. Now we need to get a better grip on the system.
Architects and project managers usually start their work with formalizing
the vision into technical terminology and context. Restricting each person
to a specific role and a well-defined task makes work on the project more
effective.
The analysis phase describes what the system should do, establishing
a common view and vocabulary for the problem space. This is often re-
ferred to as “business logic”
