  You should (re?)read the Key Value Observing Programming Guide:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/KeyValueObserving/index.html

  ... as this information is covered there. In a nutshell, you need to
implement the method:

+setKeys:triggerChangeNotificationsForDependentKey:

  ... and register dependent keys. For example, changes to -firstName
and -lastName should trigger an update on -fullName. As to where to
implement this and how, read the docs, search Google; the answers are
there once you know what to look for.
