Object-oriented technology has evolved as a means of managing the complexity inherent in many different kinds of systems, and the object model has proven to be a very powerful and unifying concept. This book provides practical guidance on the analysis and design of object-oriented (OOAD) systems. It provides a sound understanding of the fundamental concepts and historical evolution of the object model, facilitates a mastery of the notation (UML 2.0) and process of OOAD, and teaches how to effectively use OO technology to solve real problems. In addition, the guide offers a collection of five nontrivial examples encompassing a diverse selection of problem domains. The book also includes supplemental material throughout the text including an appendix on OO programming languages, summary of features on a few common languages including C++ and Java, and a glossary of common terms. Appropriate for newcomers to OO and those with experience, this is a pragmatic book that addresses the practical needs and concerns of software engineers.
Grady Booch is an IBM fellow and author of six best-selling books on object-oriented programming. He is world-reknowned as an originator of OO and founder of UML.
Robert A. Maksimchuk, as Research Director in the Unisys CTO Office, focuses on emerging modeling technologies to advance the strategic direction of the Unisys 3D-Visual Enterprise modeling framework. Bob brings an abundance of systems engineering, modeling, and object-oriented analysis and design expertise, in numerous industries, to this mission.
