"More effective analysis requires the use of problem domain constructs, both for present reuse and for future reuse." (Peter Coad & Edward Yourdon, "Object-Oriented Analysis" 2nd Ed., 1991)
"One of the biggest problems faced by analysts is studying the problem domain and making discoveries about it. [...] OOA is the challenge of understanding the problem domain, and then the system's responsibilities in that light." (Peter Coad & Edward Yourdon, "Object-Oriented Analysis" 2nd Ed., 1991)
"One of the critical success factors for any method and its application is its ability to facilitate communication, avoiding information overload. So for larger models, the question is how to guide the reader into different parts of the model." (Peter Coad & Edward Yourdon, "Object-Oriented Analysis" 2nd Ed., 1991)
"The transition from analysis to design has been a constant source of frustration. [...] no matter how many cute cartoons are drawn to depict the transition, the radical change in underlying representation causes a major chasm between analysis and design models." (Peter Coad & Edward Yourdon, "Object-Oriented Analysis" 2nd Ed., 1991)
"A pattern is a fully realized form original, or model accepted or proposed for imitation. With patterns, small piecework is standardized into a larger chunk or unit. Patterns become the building blocks for design and construction. Finding and applying patterns indicates progress in a field of human endeavor." (Peter Coad, "Object-oriented patterns", 1992)
"Object-oriented methods tend to focus on the lowest-level
building block: the class and its objects."
"With each pattern, small piecework is standardized into a larger chunk or unit. Patterns become the building blocks for design and construction. Finding and applying patterns indicates progress in a field of human endeavor." (Peter Coad, "Object-oriented patterns", 1992)
"We think most process initiatives are silly.
Well-intentioned managers and teams get so wrapped up in executing processes
that they forget that they are being paid for results, not process execution.
(Peter Coad et al, "Java Modeling in Color with UML", 1999)
