Using objected‐oriented and UML tools for hardware design: A case study

Terry Bahill and Jesse Daniels

Systems Engineering, 2003, vol. 6, issue 1, 28-48

Abstract: This paper argues for the adoption of object‐oriented design and UML tools for nonsoftware designs, i.e., systems, hardware and algorithms: This is a controversial position. It presents a case study, the design of a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system, using UML tools. This case study also shows the incremental elaboration used to progress from the requirements model, to the analysis model, to the design model, etc. The paper finally discusses some difficulties that must be overcome in order to apply UML tools to system designs. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
