Multiple inheritance in object orientation is a form of generalization which allows a class to inherit features from multiple super class. Using the concept of multiple inheritance, you can derive an object that incorporates the information from multiple classes. Multiple inheritance elevates the potential of programming languages and increases the possibility of reusing the … [Read more...] about Multiple Inheritance in Object Orientation
Aggregation in Object Orientation
Aggregation in object orientation is a kind of association which relates two objects by ‘part-of whole’ relationship that’s why it is possible only in a binary association. Aggregation is a ‘has-a’ relationship between two class like a car has a wheel, an engine has a gearbox and so on. Discovering aggregation in a class model is just a matter of judgement. In this section, … [Read more...] about Aggregation in Object Orientation
Link and Association
Link and association in UML represent the relation between objects and classes. Link is used to establish the relation between the objects in the object diagram. Association is used to represent the relation between the classes. In the problem statement provided to develop the software, link and association are presented by the verb. In this section, we will be discussing … [Read more...] about Link and Association
Class Model
Class model defines the structure of the entire system by identifying the static structure of objects in that system. A class model defines attributes and operations for the objects of each class and also the relationship between the objects in the systems. A class model prepares the platform for the other two models i.e. the state model and interaction model. Class model is … [Read more...] about Class Model
Object Oriented Development
When we talk about the object oriented development, we are actually considering the life cycle of software which include analysis, design and implementation of the software. Object oriented development focuses on identifying and organizing the application concept instead of the implementation of the software. In this section, we will study the object oriented development … [Read more...] about Object Oriented Development
Object Orientation
Object Orientation is the software engineering concept which represents the software as a cluster of distinct objects. Each object comprises both data structure i.e. it’s storage structure and functioning i.e. its behaviour. In object orientation concept data structure and behaviour of each object is tightly coupled. The object orientation concept is broadly classified into … [Read more...] about Object Orientation
Public Key Cryptography
Public Key Cryptography is a cryptographic technique that involves 'two distinct keys' for encryption and decryption. That's why it is also known as asymmetric-key cryptography. The public key cryptography is totally based on the 'invertible mathematical' function which makes it different from the conventional symmetric key cryptography. It is not that symmetric key … [Read more...] about Public Key Cryptography
RSA Algorithm in Cryptography
RSA is a first successful public key cryptographic algorithm. It is also known as an asymmetric cryptographic algorithm because two different keys are used for encryption and decryption. RSA is named after Rivest, Shamir and Adleman the three inventors of RSA algorithm. The algorithm was introduced in the year 1978. In this section, we will discuss, RSA algorithm along with … [Read more...] about RSA Algorithm in Cryptography
Fundamental Security Design Principles
The security design principles are considered while designing any security mechanism for a system. These principles are review to develop a secure system which prevents the security flaws and also prevents unwanted access to the system. Below is the list of fundamental security design principles provided by the National Centres of Academic Excellence in Information … [Read more...] about Fundamental Security Design Principles
Network Security Model
A Network Security Model exhibits how the security service has been designed over the network to prevent the opponent from causing a threat to the confidentiality or authenticity of the information that is being transmitted through the network. In this section, we will be discussing the general ‘network security model’ where we will study how messages are shared between the … [Read more...] about Network Security Model
