Abstract
This presentation introduces the Rational Objectory Process. Objectory provides guidance to a development organization to ensure the production of high-quality software. This software engineering process captures man
y of the best practices in modern software development in a form that is tailorable for a wide range of projects and organizations. It was originally developed in Sweden by Dr. Ivar Jacobson, centered around the concept of use case and an object-oriented
design method. It has gained recognition in the software industry and has been adopted by many companies world-wide. Since 1995, Objectory has been integrated with the Rational Process, to become a controlled iterative process, focused on software archite
cture, spanning the whole development life-cycle, and supported by a wide range of tools. It uses the UML notation recently adopted as a standard by the OMG.
