- In my opinion the BON ( Business Object Notation ) method is better
- than Booch or OMT or Unified, combined or otherwise.
-
- The book on BON is "Seamless Object-Oriented Software Architecture", by
- Kim Walden and Jean-Marc Nerson, Prentice Hall, 1994.
-
- BON has been implemented in EiffelCase from ISE.
-
- See "http://www.eiffel.com" for more details.
