This paper presents some basic design concepts for the design of open distributed systems. These concepts should form the basis for the development of effective design methodolo- gies. The paper discusses how design concepts, such as interaction, action and causality relation, can be used for modelling and structuring behaviours of functional entities in a distributed environment. The paper also addresses some consequences of the application of these design concepts such as the choice of language elements and operations to repre- sent behaviour structure, the structuring of the design process, and the definition of design operations for behaviour refinement. |
