Unit Operations!

So what's involved here then?Well what I understood from this discussion,all be it very little, was that these unit operations (UO) can be used to disassemble a medium, be it a film,poem etc. into elements that can be individually critiqued.

 It was compared to Object Technology (OT) which focuses on the use of components in the development of software. This eliminates the need to rewrite certain software or as one of our lecturers loved to say "there's no need to reinvent the wheel!!".

 Both unit operations and object technology seem to have a common goal. They both strive to disassemble a system for examination purposes and reuse.
