The present invention relates to a method of developing a software system using Object Oriented Technology. The present invention addresses the problem of providing a technical foundation for the development of software applications using Object Oriented Technology and frameworks. The present invention solves this problem with a framework allowing the modeling of businesses with a multiple level organizational structure. The present invention is applicable in the technical field of application development of software systems, e.g. for a business application as Financial or Logistic and Distribution, wherein it is the purpose of frameworks to provide significant portions of the application that are common across multiple implementations of the application in a general manner, easy to extend for specific implementation.

Software business objects in a multi-level organizational structure

A method of developing a software system using Object Oriented Technology and frameworks. The problem of allowing an object to acquire and lose ability and function and to modify responsibilities on an object dynamically or, in other words, to allow an object to acquire and lose the ability to do things dynamically, is addressed. This problem is solved with a framework to be used for developing a software system, e.g. for a business application. The framework comprises a number of classes which are to be processed by a computer system. The framework further comprises a Life Cycle as a description of state transitions through which an object can proceed as it is processed by an application. This is applicable in the technical field of application development of software systems, e.g. for a business application as Financial or Logistic and Distribution, wherein it is the purpose of frameworks to provide significant portions of the application that are common across multiple implementations of the application in a general manner, easy to extend for specific implementation.

Method of developing a software system using object oriented technology

The present invention is applicable in the technical field of application development of software systems, e.g. for a business application as Financial or Logistic and Distribution, wherein it is the purpose of frameworks to provide significant portions of the application that are common across multiple implementations of the application in a general manner, easy to extend for specific implementation.

Framework for business applications using cached aggregate and

The present invention relates to a method of developing a software system using Object Oriented Technology and frameworks for developing a business application. The present invention solves this problem with a framework framework comprising a using non-financial component integration base class, a target financial component integration base class, and a generic data conversion engine. The present invention is applicable in the technical field of application development of software systems, e.g. for a business application as Financial or Logistic and Distribution, wherein it is the purpose of frameworks to provide significant portions of the application that are common across multiple implementations of the application in a general manner, easy to extend for specific implementation.

Framework for business applications providing financial integration

The present invention relates to a method of developing a software system using Object Oriented Technology. The present invention addresses the problem of providing a technical foundation for the development of software applications using Object Oriented Technology and frameworks. The present invention solves this problem with a framework supporting flexible interchange of domain algorithms. The present invention is applicable in the technical field of application development of software systems, e.g., for a business application as Financial or Logistic and Distribution, wherein it is the purpose of frameworks to provide significant portions of the application that are common across multiple implementations of the application in a general manner, easy to extend for specific implementation.
