Developing initial OOA models

Abstract
Most requirements analysis methods devote little attention to how a requirements model is constructed, concentrating instead on manipulating the requirements model once it exists. We describe how we developed an initial object-oriented requirements model for an existing missile planning system. We adopted two approaches: a bottom-up approach in which we constructed objectoriented model fragments that corresponded to segments of the requirements documents, and a top-down approach that was driven by the construction and analysis of scenarios. We discuss the strengths and limitations of each approach in the context of the example.
