HASoC for Developing a Software System
We present an object-oriented development of a software system. The development is based on the customization of the lifecycle of a novel developing method called HASoC (Hardware and Software Objects on Chip). The development is presented in order to evaluate HASoC and establish a complete A-to-Z object-oriented teaching example for developing software systems. The evaluation is performed through an object-oriented development process of a software system and is aimed to prove the HASoC practicability and reveal its limitations. The HASoC method was originally aimed for developing embedded systems that are targeted at system-on-a-chip (SoC) implementations.
Keywords: Object-Oriented Approaches, UML, Object-Oriented Database, Software Development, Lifecycle Modeling
