Today, UML and its textual specification language OCL are widely used as specification and modeling languages for object oriented systems. OCL is used to constraining object structures in UML. Constraints on an object structure are invariants over a state of a system. Such invariants use an object's attributes and the relationships between objects. This paper introduces a general framework for the behavioral specification of objects, a framework for modular specifications, and a compositional verification method for OCL.
