22. Axioms of Object Paradigm

• Each problem domain consists of autonomous objects.

• Autonomous objects exist in space and in time and interact with one another.

• Interactions are operations invoked by objects on each other's behalf.

• There are patterns (regularities) in the

  • structure and

  • behavior

  of objects.

• Behavior of objects, their structure, relationships, and interactions can be modeled...

  • ...solutions to problems can be found using the model.
