This book walks developers through every step of the object-oriented development process, showing how to tailor and document the development process that is ideal for their organizations.This book shows how to tailor your own object-oriented development process -- a process that delivers software more effectively and virtually documents itself. It presents new techniques for requirements gathering, performing initial object-oriented analysis, transitioning to object-oriented design from procedural environments, implementing a design, and validating the results. It includes comprehensive templates and examples for each phase of the lifecycle. It also presents a detailed case study of a complete project, with example workbook and work products.All object-oriented developers, regardless of the languages and environments they utilize.

A complete blueprint for transitioning your organization to object-oriented systems. Transition to Object-Oriented Software Development This book will save you the frustration, wasted time, and massive cost overruns often associated with transitions to object-oriented technologies. Using numerous case studies, the authors identify the technical, management, and cultural challenges involved and show you how to overcome those challenges. They arm you with proven tactics for avoiding common traps and pitfalls. And they outfit you with a comprehensive transitioning framework for dealing with all aspects of gearing up to object-oriented technology, including: * Selecting the best object-oriented methods, tools, and development environments * Planning and budgeting projects * Staffing and training * Preparing your organizational culture for object-oriented technology * Tracking and controlling projects * Documenting object-oriented development * Creating practical metrics * Developing workable strategies for legacy systems reuse * Object engineering mission-critical systems * Designing without specs * Delivering shrink-wrapped software products * Maintaining systems post- development Visit our Web site at www.wiley.com/compbooks/

Today, IT professionals have no shortage of object methodologies and models to choose from. But when it comes to practical processes for implementing those methodologies -- where to start, what to do next -- they're largely on their own. In this book, Tom Rowlett fills the gap, presenting a robust, start-to-finish process for delivering object-oriented software. Rowlett begins by introducing seven elements of a generic process model for object development, and identifying six key characteristics of a robust, use-case based process. Next, drawing upon his extensive experience and the field's best work, he offers expert process recommendations for stage of an object-oriented development project. Rowlett covers requirements gathering, analysis, design, class design and specification, persistence, implementation, test plans and test cases, user interface development, maintenance, and more. The book includes a detailed guide to managing your process, including identifying new deliverables, managing the learning curve, running pilot projects, and tracking the new processes you've implemented. It also presents numerous practical examples, including a detailed, start-to-finish case study. For all project managers, team leaders, and software engineers building object-oriented software.

This revision of Grady Booch's classic offers the first industry-wide standard for notation in developing large scale object-oriented systems. Laying the groundwork for the development of complex systems based on the object model, the author works in C++ to provide five fully-developed design examples, along with many smaller applications. Three of these capstone projects are new with this edition, including an inventory tracking system which implements a client server. The other four span problem domains as diverse as data acquisition for scientific tools, framework, artificial intelligence, and command and control. To measure progress, metrics in object development are suggested so that the developer knows how the project is going. In addition, the author demonstrates good and bad object designs and shows how to manage the trade-offs in complex systems.

Object Solutions is a direct outgrowth of Grady Booch's experience with object-oriented project in development around the world. This book focuses on the development process and is the perfect resource for developers and managers who want to implement object technologies for the first time or refine their existing object-oriented development practice. The book is divided into two major sections. The first four chapters describe in detail the process of object-oriented development in terms of inputs, outputs, products, activities, and milestones. The remaining ten chapters provide practical advice on key issues including management, planning, reuse, and quality assurance. Drawing upon his knowledge of strategies used in both successful and unsuccessful projects, Grady Booch offers pragmatic advice for applying object-technologies and controlling projects effectively.

Object-Oriented Design with Applications has long been the essential reference to object-oriented technology, which, in turn, has evolved to join the mainstream of industrial-strength software development. In this third edition--the first revision in 13 years--readers can learn to apply object-oriented methods using new paradigms such as Java, the Unified Modeling Language (UML) 2.0, and .NET. The authors draw upon their rich and varied experience to offer improved methods for object development and numerous examples that tackle the complex problems faced by software engineers, including systems architecture, data acquisition, cryptoanalysis, control systems, and Web development. They illustrate essential concepts, explain the method, and show successful applications in a variety of fields. You'll also find pragmatic advice on a host of issues, including classification, implementation strategies, and cost-effective project management. New to this new edition are An introduction to the new UML 2.0, from the notation's most fundamental and advanced elements with an emphasis on key changes New domains and contexts A greatly enhanced focus on modeling--as eagerly requested by readers--with five chapters that each delve into one phase of the overall development lifecycle. Fresh approaches to reasoning about complex systems An examination of the conceptual foundation of the widely misunderstood fundamental elements of the object model, such as abstraction, encapsulation, modularity, and hierarchy How to allocate the resources of a team of developers and mange the risks associated with developing complex software systems An appendix on object-oriented programming languages This is the seminal text for anyone who wishes to use object-oriented technology to manage the complexity inherent in many kinds of systems.

Almost all software projects are risky. The goal of every project manager is to somehow deal with the cost and schedule uncertainty while meeting your customer's needs. In Object-Oriented Project Management with UML, Murray Cantor describes an elegant, UML-based approach to managing object-oriented projects guaranteed to deliver high-quality software on time and within budget. Drawing on his experience managing major software projects at IBM and TASC, Cantor supplies you with: * Proven ways to reap the benefits of using UML tools to tame most project demons and deliver optimal OO systems * Tips on integrating object-based techniques with traditional methods for project planning, risk management, scheduling, time-phased budgeting, and more * Expert advice on how to handle all the important "people" issues that crop up during a development project * Real-life war stories that let you see firsthand what worked and what didn't on several major development projects * A full-length project example that walks you through every phase of a project told in terms of problems and solutions Visit the companion Web site at www.wiley.com/compbooks/cantor to find: * Sample project schedules, budgets, database templates for managing use cases, and a work-breakdown structure * A spreadsheet workbook for managing incremental development * A development tracking diagram Prior to joining TASC, Dr. Cantor was a development manager at IBM, where he oversaw the development of high-end graphics and multimedia systems.
