Evolution is indispensable process in software development, so the systematic treatment of evolution is very important. UML becomes a de facto standard for notation in object oriented development, but the relations between each models are not defined clearly in UML, and further a usecase model is not defined in UML. In this paper, in order to support the evolution in object oriented development, we defined a usecase model, an object model, and traceability links between these models. Using these models and links, we proposed a new evolution method. Evolution in design patterns are also considered.
