Abstract

This paper suggests a team-based process model to be used with the Unified Modeling Language (UML). This teambased Object-Oriented Client/Server model (OOCS) has its background in the same sources as the modeling language, and it has been used in practical projects for some years. Before the UML appeared, the model combined use case analysis, the Object Modeling Technique and client/server architecture with an iterative/incremental development process. In addition to this, the OOCS model defines the roles of the developers and their tasks in each phase. The roles are described and their use in practice is discussed in this paper.
