The framework of objectory is a design technique called design with building blocks. With the building block technique, a system is viewed as a system of connecting blocks with each block representing a system service.
It is considered to be the first commercially available object-oriented methodology for developing large-scale industrial systems.
This approach gives a global view of the software development and focuses on cost efficiency.
Its main techniques are: conceptual modelling, Object-oriented programming, and a block design technique.
