Object Oriented Programming for Reusable Applications: A Modelling Approach

Abstract

This note discusses a potential paradigm for computer-based modelling and simulation activities within the Directorate of Air Operational Research. Adherence to Object Oriented Programming principles is advocated for modelling or simulation projects which are likely to be reused in follow-on or adjunct studies. Object Oriented Programming tenets of encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism can increase analyst productivity by simplifying maintenance and modification tasks.
