The first edition of Object-Oriented Design with Applications was instrumental in making object-oriented technology a practical reality--hundreds of projects applied Booch's notation and process to complex problems in diverse domains. In this eagerly-awaited new edition, Grady Booch draws upon the rich and varied results of these projects to offer improved methods for object development and a new, unified notation. With numerous examples, all of which are now implemented in C++, Booch illustrates essential concepts, explains the method, and shows successful applications in a variety of fields. You'll also find pragmatic advice on a host of issues including classification, implementation strategies, and cost-effective project management.

Features of the New Edition:

• Presents a new, unified notation that incorporates the best ideas from Booch's notation and other widely-used methods
• Uses C++, rapidly emerging as a standard programming language for object development, in all programming examples and applications
• Includes new examples of real world projects, including a client/server architecture and an application framework
• Distinguishes between good and bad object-oriented analysis and design and shows how to evaluate architectural tradeoffs to manage complexity
• Includes extensive new detail on the process and pragmatics of object-oriented analysis and design

This is the essential reference for anyone who implements or manages object technologies, or who wishes to begin exploration of this important new paradigm.

  ISBN-10: 0321246748 | ISBN-13: 9780321246745
  Brief Description | Buy from myPearsonStore

  

  Aspect-oriented software development is emerging as a proven approach for

  allowing the separate expression of multiple concerns, along with "weaving"

  technologies for knitting together these separate expressions into coherent

  systems. In other words, it offers great promise as an approach to simplifying

  the development of complex modern software systems. Many expert observers

  view AOSD as a worthwhile successor to the popular object-oriented paradigm

  that is prevalent in contemporary software engineering. In this new book,

  AOSD experts Clarke and Baniassad apply proven theory to the practical realm

  of real-world development. The result is an applicable and easy-to-digest

  methodology for simplifying and optimizing the development of thoroughly

  modern software systems.

  Brief Description | Buy from myPearsonStore

  

  Aspect orientation promises to be the next big wave in software engineering,

  following on the heels of the object-oriented paradigm. Proponents tout the

  value of aspect orientation in providing the ability to add extremely useful

  mechanisms such as security, logging, persistence, debugging, tracing,

  distribution, performance monitoring, and exception handling. To state it

  simply, it makes programming and programs more efficient.

  This highly-anticipated new book demonstrates how to apply use cases and

  aspect orientation in building robust and extensible systems. The authors show

  you how to identify, design, implement, test, and refactor use case modules and

  how to extend them. The book also demonstrates how to design use case

  modules with UML including some enhancements made in UML 2.0 to better

  support the modeling of use case modules.

  This book teaches the student how to use objects, frameworks, and UML notation to design, build, and reuse component-based software. Catalysis is a rapidly emerging UML-based method for object- and component-based development. It provides a clear meaning of and systematic uses for the UML notation. "The Catalysis Approach" explains how patterns can be characterized as model frameworks. Through the application of frameworks in requirements, specifications, architectures, and designs, students will find that all models contain recurring patterns of structure, behavior, and refinement. This opens the way to building models and designs rapidly by adapting and composing both generic and domain-specific modeling frameworks.

  Refactoring is about improving the design of existing code. It is the process of changing a software system in such a way that it does not alter the external behavior of the code, yet improves its internal structure. With refactoring you can even take a bad design and rework it into a good one. This book offers a thorough discussion of the principles of refactoring, including where to spot opportunities for refactoring, and how to set up the required tests. There is also a catalog of more than 40 proven refactorings with details as to when and why to use the refactoring, step by step instructions for implementing it, and an example illustrating how it works The book is written using Java as its principle language, but the ideas are applicable to any OO language.

  This book provides a clear and provocative discussion of the economics, metrics, and management strategies necessary to plan and execute a software project successfully. Royce discusses, with refreshing candor, some of the fads, follies, and excesses of the software industry, clearly differentiating proven techniques and obsolete methods. Paired with this insightful examination are compelling arguments for new management approaches that are sure to stimulate debate. The relative impacts of these new techniques are quantified through simple economic analyses, common sense, and anecdotal evidence. The resulting framework strikes a pragmatic balance between theory and practice that can be readily applied in today's challenging development environment. An extensive case study analysis of a large-scale, million-line project deployed successfully on schedule and under budget using these methods further illustrates their application.

  This thoroughly revised second edition is based upon the authors' successful

  training courses, and gives the reader a quick, focused tour through a proven

  object-oriented analysis and design process. It introduces and explains the

  need-to-know concepts and key elements of both Unified Modeling Language

  (UML) and the Unified Process (UP). The book allows the reader to get up to

  speed on successful techniques that can be immediately applied. The structure

  of the book aims to give the reader as clear and uncomplicated a guide as

  possible. It takes the reader through an introduction to UML, an introduction

  to the UP, then covers the basics of software requirements and use case

  modeling. The key aspects of the analysis and design stages are covered in stepby-

  step detail, finishing off with implementation.

  The latest version of the Unified Modeling Language–UML 2.0–has increased its capabilities as the standard notation for modeling software-intensive systems. Like most standards documents, however, the official UML specification is difficult to read and navigate. In addition, UML 2.0 is far more complex than previous versions, making a thorough reference book more essential than ever.

  In this significantly updated and expanded edition of the definitive reference to the standard, James Rumbaugh, Ivar Jacobson, and Grady Booch–the UML’s creators–clearly and completely describe UML concepts, including major revisions to sequence diagrams, activity models, state machines, components, internal structure of classes and components, and profiles.

  This landmark book provides a thorough overview of the Unified Process for software development, with a practical focus on modeling using the Unified Modeling Language. The Unified Process goes beyond mere object-oriented analysis and design to spell out a proven family of techniques that supports the complete software development life cycle. The result is a component-based process that is use-case driven, architecture-centric, iterative, and incremental. The Unified Process takes full advantage of the industry-standard Unified Modeling Language. This book demonstrates how the notation and process complement one another, using UML models to illustrate the new process in action. The authors clearly describe the semantics and notation of the different higher-level constructs used in the models. Constructs such as use cases, actors, subsystems, classes, interfaces, active classes, processes, threads, nodes, and most relations are described in the context of a model. Object technology practitioners and software engineers familiar with the authors' past work will appreciate The Unified Software Development Process as a useful means of learning the current best practices in software development.

  Fully updated and revised, Visual Modeling with Rational Rose 2002 and UML is a comprehensive introduction and tutorial that shows how to use a tool (Rational Rose 2002), a process (the Rational Unified Process), and a language (the UML) to successfully visualize, specify, document, and construct a software system. This timely new edition, written by the UML Evangelist at Rational Software Corporation, breaks the technology down to its essentials and provides clear explanations of each element. The book follows a simplified version of the Rational Unified Process from project inception through system analysis and design. The popular sample case study from the previous editions (a registration system for a fictional university) has been retained and updated, now better illustrating the iterative development process in practice, the UML in action, and the proper application of Rational Rose 2002. Newly updated appendixes demonstrate code generation and reverse engineering using Rational Rose 2002 with the C++, Visual C++, and Visual Basic programming languages. In addition, a handy glossary defines key object technology and software modeling terms.
