Object-Oriented analysis and design approach has become the mainstream of today¡¦s systems development technique. The Class Diagram in Unified Modeling Language (UML) is the major tool for modeling the class structure in the object-oriented system analysis and design process. Once the class diagram is constructed, class normalization needs to be performed to eliminate the anomalies for the designing a database. However, the detailed guideline for performing class normalization is lacking. Therefore, this study presents a class normalization methodology based on object normal forms proposed by Ambler (1996). Two real-world cases are presented to illustrate the concepts, application, and the advantages of using the proposed method. Using this methodology in class modeling will help system developers normalize the class design in advance, and thereby enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of system development.
