A MODELING APPROACH TO THE CONSTRUCTION OF OBJECT-ORIENTED OPERATING-SYSTEMS

Abstract

The authors propose an O-O modeling method called, MOOD that provides techniques for modeling the solution-domain objects of an operating system resulting in a set of graphical notations that can be mapped directly into object-oriented programming constructs during the implementation phase. Special attention is paid to reusing existing components and creating reusable components. An example of a ring-driver is given.
