For nearly ten years, the Unified Modeling Language (UML) has been the industry standard for visualizing, specifying, constructing, and documenting the artifacts of a software-intensive system. As the de facto standard modeling language, the UML facilitates communication and reduces confusion among project stakeholders. The recent standardization ...
This book is an application book, rather than a theoretical one. It is written for software practitioners who want to gain a better understanding of the patterns described in the seminal design patterns book by Gamma et al. The book's intent is to give developers the confidence and know-how to apply the original 23 patterns identified in the Gamma ...
Applied Use Case Driven Object Modeling with UML: An Annotated e-Commerce Example provides a practical, hands-on guide to putting use case methods to work in real-world situations. This companion workbook to Use Case Driven Object Modeling with UML bridges the gap between the theory presented in the authors' first book, and the practical issues ...
Composed of updated versions of James Odell's articles from The Journal of Object-Oriented Programming, ROAD , and Object Magazine, this book works to convey the essence of object-oriented programming and software building through the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The author provides concise but in-depth pieces on structural issues, dynamic ...
Modeling languages have been used by system developers for decades to specify, visualize, construct, and document systems; rough sketches using stick figures and arrows and scribbled routing conditions go back still further. But the Unified Modeling Language (UML), for the first time in the history of systems engineering, gives practitioners a ...
"An excellent hands-on book for practitioners eager to document the internal structure and everyday workings of business processes. This clear and practical book belongs on the shelf of everyone dedicated to mapping, maintaining, and streamlining business processes." -Richard Mark Soley, Phd, Chairman and CEO, OMG "Eriksson and Penker have not ...
J2EE is especially well suited for building large-scale, robust enterprise applications; UML has rapidly become the industry standard for expressing the design of enterprise software applications. Increasingly, enterprise developers wish to use J2EE and UML together. For the first time, there's an expert guide to doing so: Developing Enterprise ...
Object-oriented modelling and design promote better understanding of requirements, cleaner designs and more maintainable systems. Often, books on related subjects rely on programming and coding, forcing readers to think in terms of the computer, and not the application. "Object-Oriented Modeling and Design" emphasizes that object-oriented ...
Put SAD into action! You can't truly understand Systems Analysis and Design (SAD) by only reading about it; you have to do it. In "Systems Analysis and Design, Third Edition", Dennis, Wixom, and Roth offer a hands on approach to actually doing SAD. Building on their experience as professional systems analysts and award winning teachers, these ...
Building Web Applications with UML is a guide to building robust, scalable, and feature-rich web applications using proven object-oriented techniques. Written for the project manager, architect, analyst, designer, and programmer of web applications, this book examines the unique aspects of modeling web applications with the Web Application ...
The Common Information Model (CIM) is the emerging industry standard for monitoring and controlling enterprise computing environments. All the major players, including Cisco, 3COM, Compaq, Dell, HP, Intel, IBM, and Novell have already committed to supporting CIM, and Microsoft has made it a core component of Windows 2000. This book, authored by ...
This book is an introduction object-oriented analysis and design for developers with little OO experience. It shows how to use UML and apply it in object-orientated software development. Object Technology Series Are you a software developer or project manager looking to exploit the power of object technology in your development process for the ...
For courses in Object-Oriented Programming or Object Oriented C++ courses offered in Computer Science and Computer Engineering programs at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. This practical book teaches readers how to actually do object-oriented modeling using UML notation and implementing the model using C++. The authors introduce all of ...
The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a third generation method for specifying, visualizing, and documenting an object-oriented system under development. It unifies the three leading object-oriented methods and others to serve as the basis for a common, stable, and expressive object-oriented development notation. As the complexity of software ...
System developers have used modeling languages for decades to specify, visualize, construct, and document systems. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is one of those languages. UML makes it possible for team members to collaborate by providing a common language that applies to a multitude of different systems. Essentially, it enables you to ...
The convergence of object technology and business systems methodologies has led to a new discipline: business engineering. The goal of business engineering is to improve the performance of an enterprise through formal modeling, the application of appropriate concepts, best practices, and information technology. Written for practitioners interested ...
Typically, analysis, development, and database teams work for different business units, and use different design notations. With UML and the Rational Unified Process (RUP), however, they can unify their efforts -- eliminating time-consuming, error-prone translations, and accelerating software to market. In this book, two data modeling specialists ...
