Abstract
This paper discusses the convenience of the application of
object-oriented software engineering (OOSE) concepts and
techniques in the development of software for engineering in
order to increase the reliability and performance, enhance the
reusability and scalability, and reduce the cost of production
and maintenance. It is restricted to the software dedicated to
analysis of problems solved via the finite element method
(FEM), which has many applications in the field of
engineering. Nonetheless, the arguments presented here apply
equally well, mutatis mutandis, to any software for the
engineering.
