Two excellent papers have recently appeared in _Communications
Of The ACM_ on the topic of Entity-Life Modeling, a design technique
for concurrent software systems.
The first article, "An Entity-Life Modeling Approach to the
Design of Concurrent Software", illustrates the design of a
elevator control system using entity-life modeling, and compares
it to the JSD (Jackson Structured Development) approach. It appears
in the March 1989 issue (Volume 32, Number 3), pages 330-343.
The second article, "Entity-Life Modeling and Structured Analysis
in Real-Time Software Design - A Comparison", compares the approach
of entity-life modeling with the approach of structured analysis.
It appears in the December 1989 issue (Volume 32, Number 12), pages
1458-1466.
The author is Bo Sanden, of the Center for Software Systems Engineering
at George Mason University. I strongly recommend these articles to anyone
who is interested in the topic of designing concurrent software systems.
