About this title

Synopsis

This book is about an exciting new technique - use case maps - for translating high-level thinking into a concrete work product of the development process. It provides a comprehensive introduction to use case maps and their applications to high-level design of object-oriented systems.
Use cases describe interaction scenarios between a system to be designed and users of the system. A well-chosen set of critical scenarios is a good starting point for design and for testing the implementation. Use case maps provide a visual notation for use cases.
Use case maps provide a means for making desired large grain patterns concrete; work products that may be saved, manipulated, extended, and reused; and a behavioral framework for making architectural decisions at a high level of design.

From the Back Cover

Key Benefit: In a subject area that is flooded with books, this use unique book offers something new—use case maps. Use cases describe interaction scenarios between a system to be designed and users of the system. The authors support these scenarios with maps to provide a visual notation for prose use cases and a means of extending the cases into high-level design. Key Topics: This book is a comprehensive study of use case maps and their applications to high level design of systems. It also shows readers how to use the maps in a coordinated way with other standard requirements/design models for object-oriented and real-time systems (e.g., use cases, class relationship diagrams, collaboration graphs, interaction sequence diagrams).
