About this Item

Hardcover. For courses in Object-Oriented Design, C++ Intermediate Programming, and Object-Oriented Programming. Written for software engineers in the trenches, this text focuses on the technologythe principles, patterns, and processthat help software engineers effectively manage increasingly complex operating systems and applications. There is also a strong emphasis on the people behind the technology. This text will prepare students for a career in software engineering and serve as an on-going education for software engineers. This text combines a tutorial of OOD and UML with a description of a complete software design using C++. Using a practical, problem-solving approach, it shows how to develop an object-oriented application-from the early stages of analysis, through the low-level design and into the implementation.

About this title

Synopsis

Written by a software developer for software developers, this book is a unique collection of the latest software development methods. The author includes OOD, UML, Design Patterns, Agile and XP methods with a detailed description of a complete software design for reusable programs in C++ and Java. Using a practical, problem-solving approach, it shows how to develop an object-oriented application―from the early stages of analysis, through the low-level design and into the implementation. Walks readers through the designer's thoughts ― showing the errors, blind alleys, and creative insights that occur throughout the software design process. The book covers: Statics and Dynamics; Principles of Class Design; Complexity Management; Principles of Package Design; Analysis and Design; Patterns and Paradigm Crossings. Explains the principles of OOD, one by one, and then demonstrates them with numerous examples, completely worked-through designs, and case studies. Covers traps, pitfalls, and work arounds in the application of C++ and OOD and then shows how Agile methods can be used. Discusses the methods for designing and developing big software in detail. Features a three-chapter, in-depth, single case study of a building security system. For Software Engineers, Programmers, and Analysts who want to understand how to design object oriented software with state of the art methods.
