Object-Oriented Analysis and Design
Pre-Test Questions
Course Introduction
Object-Oriented Analysis and Design is a course that explores the principles and methodologies involved in developing software systems using object-oriented paradigms. Students will learn to model real-world scenarios through objects, identify and define relationships among objects, and apply design principles such as encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism. The course covers systematic approaches to requirement gathering, system modeling using Unified Modeling Language (UML), and the application of design patterns to solve common software development problems. Emphasis is placed on translating user requirements into robust, maintainable, and scalable object-oriented systems, preparing students for advanced software development projects.

Q3) Mike Hammer, the father of BPR, estimates that 70% of BPR projects fail. Given that failure rate, why should a firm bother even attempting a BPR effort?
Answer: Even though the risk of BPR is high, the potential for business value is very high since it seeks to radically improve the nature of the business. If a firm refuses to attempt BPR, it will never know if it could have changed the very way in which it does business, and it will have given up the potential savings due to increased efficiency and effectiveness.
