Rep Power: 10 DaWei is on a distinguished road
Object oriented design is the kind of design most easily accomodated by the human brain. It is converted to a more procedural approach for today's common processors because they are incapable of dealing directly with the process. OOD is not an invention of software gurus. It has been around for ages. Look at the design of physical objects all around you. Think of your software designs in the same terms. You will need layers of abstraction between your design and the machine implementation. One can afford it, these days.
