Synopsis

This book is the ideal introduction to object-oriented analysis and design for developers with little experience of developing OO software. The fist part takes the reader step-by-step through the development process using one continuous example to show how each principle and concept is applied in practice. Th second part explains the basics of UML in detail, with individual examples. Numerous cross references between the two parts mean that readers can follow the software development example, learning the appropriate features of UML as they become relevant. For more advanced readers, the book may be treated as a tutorial on the application of UML which includes a reference in case there are any concepts with which he/she is not familiar.

Are you a software developer or project manager looking to exploit the power of object technology in your development process for the first time? Do you need a practical, example-driven introduction to object-oriented analysis and design? If so, look no further.

This book explains the benefits of using the object-oriented approach for software development as well as providing a state-of-the-art account of the technology available. Employing numerous real-life examples to illustrate its application, the use of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) in object-oriented analysis and design is explained systematically by an experienced practitioner.

The first part of the book takes the reader step-by-step through the development process using one continuous example to show how each principle and concept is applied in practice. The second part explains the basics of UML in detail, with individual examples. Numerous cross-references between the two parts mean that readers can follow the software development example, learning the appropriate features of UML as they become relevant. For more advanced readers, the book may be treated as a tutorial on the application of UML.

This book:

• Is fully compliant with UML 1.3
• Contains numerous examples all coded in Java
• Covers the Object Constraint Language (OCL) and modeling business processes, as well as incorporating a chapter on project management.
• Winner of the German "Best OO and Java Product in 1997" SIGS award in the category of books and other media, and best book at the OOP '99 conference in Munich.
