Object-Oriented Analysis and Design

Covering the breadth ofthis coretopic,Object-Oriented Analysis and Design provides a thorough grounding in object-oriented concepts, the software development process, UML and multi-tier technologies.Beginning withthe basic ground work underpinningobject-oriented software projects,it follows the steps of a typical development project (Requirements Capture,Design,Specification & Testing), showing how an abstract problem is taken through to a concrete solution. Theauthors take aprogramming language agnostic approach - so code is kept to a minimum to avoid detail and deviation into implementation minutiae. A single case study running through the text provides a realistic exampleof software development, from an initial proposal through to a finished system. Key artefacts such as the requirements document and detailed designs are included,plus exercises in each aspect of the case study,to enablereaders to produce similar documents for a different system.
