Abstract
Object-oriented programming (OOP) is now widely used in application software development. OOP has advantages connected with handling complexity, reusability, extendability, modularity and data abstraction, enabling it to handle modern programming requirements more effectively than conventional programming methods. Successful advanced manufacturing systems demand increasing complexity, flexibility and integration between computer applications. An object-oriented approach is particularly promising for the design and development of manufacturing information systems. This paper outlines the concepts of object-oriented methods, and describes an object-oriented application development methodology for manufacturing information systems. A CASE (Computer-Aided Software Engineering) tool is used for system modelling and for direct source-code generation. A case study describing the development of a quality management information system is presented, which was implemented using a C++ development environment. Although the research described here is concerned with quality management information systems, the proposed design methodology is applicable to other areas of manufacturing, and conclusions are drawn concerning the uses of OOP in manufacturing information systems generally.
