Abstract
Object oriented models model structural and behavioural aspects of obj ects in the Universe of Discourse. As the dynamic aspects of objects i nclude parallelism and synchronisation of object life cycles, conceptu al schemes must be verified for problematic behaviour like deadlock. I n this paper we will present fragments of a method for object oriented analysis and the process algebra that allows to formally verify a con ceptual schema build according to this method for deadlock behaviour.
