Too complex for complete analysis Separation into non-interacting subsystems distorts the results The most important properties are emergent Too organized for statistics Too much underlying structure that distorts the statistics Organized Complexity\(Weinberg) Copyright Nancy Leveson, Sept 1999
Requirements specification: A structured document that sets out the services the system is expected to provide Should be precise so that it can act as a contract between the system procurer and software developer and thus needs to be understandable by procurers and developers
design: added inheritance, multiple inheritance, and polymorphism to ADT In process added complexity and increased some types of connectivity Lots of claimed advantages -- so far empirical evaluation is not supporting them well
