An Object Based
World

Most definitions of object oriented principles agree that objects have attributes
as well as methods. In our own writings and thinking, we refer to those two
fundamental property sets as business objects and business rules. Data modeling is supposedly concerned only with attributes - the static structure of data found in objects. That would be true of a purely relational model - i.e., one which represented nothing but tables and their columns. Such a data model expresses the maximum, least constrained, potential for its design to hold information. |
