Abstract

There are two major conceptual models for software systems: the procedure-oriented model and the object-oriented model. In the procedure-oriented model, a system consists of a number of processes (programs). A program consists of a number of subprograms (procedures and/or functions), and each subprogram owns and manipulates some local data; together they may share some global data. A program is a sequence of subprogram activations and data exchanges arranged by a control algorithm. If the system has multiple programs, data may be transferred among them asynchronously or synchronously through messages or shared variables.
