Abstract
Recent research has demonstrated the use of object-oriented programming (OOP) for application software, database management systems, and knowledge engineering. The aim is to achieve more reliable, re-usable, and flexible software. On beginning the development of an object-oriented program generating energy management system (EMS) displays for identifying faulted transmission lines in an electric power system, the authors discovered that the design methodologies for the OOP paradigm were not totally satisfactory. Thus the first phase of this project consisted of developing a new design procedure, based on indices, to ‘optimize’ the use of the encapsulation and inheritance features of OOP. This paper introduces the systematic procedure with the example of the EMS display program. The methodology, consisting of evaluating indices and constraints, provides insight into implementing software in the object-oriented structure.
