If Carl Hiaasen set one of his novels on a residential stretch of boundary line between British Columbia and Washington, or if Richard Russo's characters had relatives in the Pacific Northwest, the result might be something like Jim Lynch's Border Songs. Continue »

Publisher Comments:

The Objectory Software Development Process is a new software analysis and design process derived primarily from the three market leading OOA&D methods, Booch, OOSE (Use-Case), and OMT with ideas drawn from many other methods and input from many other parties. It is a component-based, use case driven, architecture centered, iterative and incremental developmental process that uses the Unified Modeling Language (UML) to represent models of the software system to be developed. The Objectory Software Development Process book describes, apart from the unified generic process and the different activities in developing a software system, the different models developed and evolved during the lifecycle of a system. It describes in an easy-to-understand way the different higher-level constructs — notation as well as semantics — used in the models. Thus stereotypes such as use cases and actors, packages, classes, stereotypes, interfaces, active classes, processes and threads, nodes, and most relations will be described in tuitively in the context of a model. The Objectory Software Development Process will go further then most OO A&D methods by describing a family of processes that incorporate the complete life-cycle of software development.

Book News Annotation:

This guide overviews the Unified Process for software development, with a focus on modeling using the Unified Modeling Language (UML). It demonstrates how the notation and process complement on another, using UML models to illustrate the new process in action. The authors describe semantics and notation of the different higher-level constructs used on the models. Constructs such as use cases, actors, subsystems, classes, interfaces, active classes, processes, threads, nodes, and most relations are described in the context of a model. ^^^^

Synopsis:

This landmark book provides a thorough overview of the Unified Process for software development, with a practical focus on modeling using the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The Unified Process goes beyond mere object-oriented analysis and design to spell out a proven family of techniques that supports the complete software development life cycle. The result is a component-based process that is use-case driven, architecture-centric, iterative, and incremental.

The Unified Process takes full advantage of the industry-standard Unified Modeling Language. This book demonstrates how the notation and process complement one another, using UML models to illustrate the new process in action. The authors clearly describe the semantics and notation of the different higher-level constructs used in the models. Constructs such as use cases, actors, subsystems, classes, interfaces, active classes, processes, threads, nodes, and most relations are described in the context of a model. Object technology practitioners and software engineers familiar with the authors' past work will appreciate "The Unified Software Development Process" as a useful means of learning the current best practices in software development.

Synopsis:

This is the definitive book on the much anticipated Unified Process, the development process that emerged from the merger of the three leading software development methodologies by the world famous creators of those methods.
