    Abstract

    This paper introduces an object-oriented approach to understand communication systems and their ar-chitecture, Classes of Communicating Systems (CCS). These classes, which take the conceptual per-spective, are intuitive and easily understandable parts of communication systems. CCS has three main classes: System, Entity, and Message. These classes are strongly related to each other. They can be used to present parts and relations of communication systems in a consistent, intuitive, and object-oriented way. The System is the "back-bone" class. It contains interfaces to the environment, and Entities which are active parts of a system. Messages are sent between Entities.
