Object —something that is described by a set of attributes (data items) and that will be manipulated within the software (system) eachinstance of an object (e.g., a book) of an object (e.g., a book) can be identified uniquely (e.g., ISBN #) each plays a necessary role in the system i.e., the system could not function without access to instances of the object each is described by attributes that are themselves data items
