Object-Oriented Software Engineering: Practical software development using UML and Java

Written by two of academia's experts in software engineering, Object-Oriented Software Engineering: Practical software development using UML and Java provides a modern introduction to the subject for today's students.

This important new book gives an in-depth treatment of key principles that have broad applicability and relevance. Lethbridge and Laganiere have packed the text with examples and integrated exercises. In addition there are examples and exercises to give students practice on a variety of interesting problems and to help maintain their motivation.

Timothy C Lethbridge is Associate Professor in the School of Information Technology and Engineering at the University of Ottawa, Ontario. Both authors have taught software engineering courses for fourteen years, and have attempted to tune the book so that it is both useful and enjoyable to students. Their industrial experience performing software development, consulting and professional training has also allowed them to focus on material that is important to the employers of the students that will use this text.
