DEVELOPMENT EVALUATION SYSTEMS FOR EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS USING REUSABLE INFORMATION OBJECTS

摘要

This article describes our approach of building Reusable Information Objects, based on presently used data in different Information Systems in the University of Technology, Jamaica. Based on Object-Oriented ideas, we are able to create and maintain these objects as an Information Basis for any other Systems that can be developed. Instantiations of these objects allow generating new Information Systems that don't modify this Basis, which is critical for other systems. Flexibility and customization of new Information Systems which use the basic data are the main benefits of that approach.
