Publisher's Synopsis
Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) is a key management issue. This book looks at BPR in the context of developing object-oriented software systems for a company that supports the re-engineering process. The author shows how object technology can be used in the BPR model, how the requirements of a new software system can be captured as a result of business engineering and how business engineering and software engineering can be matched in a seamless way. The work takes a formal approach to the whole re-engineering process - business models are expressed in a formal way but are flexible enough to adapt to different types of organizations as well as to change to new or modified businesses. Object oriented technology is used to describe the architecture of an organization.
