Abstract

Not far behind the leaders in the object-oriented revolution, the advocates of object-oriented databases and methodologies have been rushing into print to establish their commercial positions — or academic reputations. Yet there are doubts about the ability of the proposed methodologies to meet both the needs of the database approach and the opportunities of an evolutionary software engineering approach based on re-usable components. This paper reviews a range of available and proposed methodologies, and suggests requirements to be met by any methodology claiming to offer an advance on existing techniques. It also suggests what might be fruitful areas for further research.
