Applying UML and Patterns: An Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design
Prentice Hall, Upper Saddle River, NJ, (1998)
Abstract
Master the Unified Modeling Language, the new standard for object orientation. It's not enough just to learn an object-oriented language. A proficient programmer must also have the ability to design robust, scalable, maintainable systems. Applying UML and Patterns was written especially to provide the foundation for a complete understanding of the object paradigm, and how to put it to practical use. Applying UML and Patterns provides beginning object programmers with a detailed activity roadmap to guide them through each step of requirements, analysis, design, and coding. This book strongly emphasizes translating theoretical concepts to practical applications. Using a single integrated case study throughout the book, Applying UML and Patterns provides a comprehensive, hands-on approach that gives a thorough grounding to beginning and intermediate programmers.
