Working with Business Objects: A Case Study

  • Conference paper
Business Object Design and Implementation II

Abstract

In this short paper we report on the first steps of a case study on the usage and adaptability of business objects (BOs). This toy-world scenario is the first stage of a study for a German automobile company to evaluate business objects especially from the reuse perspective. Therefore we transfer a well known example — a time-planner — from UML to CDL, realize it on the basis of IBMs SanFrancisco and take a critical look at the resulting benefits of BOs against ordinary OO techniques.
