| Abstract | In this paper object-oriented methods are exam-ined, problems are pointed out and a new method is presented. In object-oriented analysis and de-sign methods two types of models can be identi-fied. On one hand, static architecture models are quite similar in all methods and can be considered as very elaborate. For dynamic models, on the other hand, a number of problems are encoun-tered. They are not expressive enough, they are not reversible and dynamic models do not support a seamless development process.
We have developed the MODERN method. It re-uses known static architecture models. For the dynamic model, though, a new approach is pre-sented: In a task oriented model a delegation relation is examined. This model is fully reversi-ble, strictly object-oriented and highly expressive. In MODERN the entire development process is reversible and seamless.
