Unified Modeling Language User Guide 1ST Editionby Grady Booch
Out of Print
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:For nearly ten years, the Unified Modeling Language (UML) has been the industry standard for visualizing, specifying, constructing, and documenting the artifacts of a software-intensive system. As the de facto standard modeling language, the UML facilitates communication and reduces confusion among project stakeholders. The recent standardization of UML 2.0 has further extended the language's scope and viability. Its inherent expressiveness allows users to model everything from enterprise information systems and distributed Web-based applications to real-time embedded systems. In this eagerly anticipated revision of the best-selling and definitive guide to the use of the UML, the creators of the language provide a tutorial to its core aspects in a two-color format designed to facilitate learning. Starting with an overview of the UML, the book explains the language gradually by introducing a few concepts and notations in each chapter. It also illustrates the application of the UML to complex modeling problems across a variety of application domains. The in-depth coverage and example-driven approach that made the first edition of The Unified Modeling Language User Guide an indispensable resource remain unchanged. However, content has been thoroughly updated to reflect changes to notation and usage required by UML 2.0. Highlights include:
With this essential guide, you will quickly get up to speed on the latest features of the industry standard modeling language and be able to apply them to your next software project. Book News Annotation:A tutorial to the core aspects of the UML by the language's original
developers. Begins with a conceptual model of the UML and then
progressively applies the UML to a series of increasingly complex
modeling problems across a variety of application domains. Covers
structural modeling, behavioral modeling, and architectural modeling.
Also includes a learning track focused on applying the UML to
advanced modeling systems for more advanced developers. Appends
information on UML notation, standard elements, and rational unified
processes.
Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Synopsis:This text provides a guide to object-oriented programming and unified modelling language. Synopsis:Introduced in 1997, the Unified Modeling Language (UML) has rapidly been accepted throughout the software industry as the standard graphical language for specifying, constructing, visualizing, and documenting software-intensive systems. The UML provides anyone involved in the production, deployment, and maintenance of software with a standard notation for expressing a system's blueprint. The UML covers conceptual things, such as business processes and system functions, as well as concrete things, such as programming-language classes, database schemas, and reusable software components. In The Unified Modeling Language User Guide, the original developers of the UML-Grady Booch, James Rumbaugh, and Ivar Jacobson-provide a tutorial to the core aspects of the language in a two-color format designed to facilitate learning. Starting with a conceptual model of the UML, the book progressively applies the UML to a series of increasingly complex modeling problems across a variety of application domains. This example-driven approach helps readers quickly understand and apply the UML. For more advanced developers, the book includes a learning track focused on applying the UML to advanced modeling problems.
With The Unified Modeling Language User Guide, readers will:
x understand what the UML is, what it is not, and why it is relevant to the development of software-intensive systems
x master the vocabulary, rules, and idioms of the UML in order to "speak" the language effectively
x learn how to apply the UML to a number of common modeling problems
x see illustrations of the UML's use interspersed with use cases for specific UML features
x gain insight into the UML from the original creators of the UML About the AuthorGrady Booch, James Rumbaugh, and Ivar Jacobson are the original designers of the Unified Modeling Language and three of the most widely known names in the field of software engineering. Accomplished authors, they are recognized worldwide for many significant contributions to the development of object technology, including the Booch Method, the Object Modeling Technique (OMT), and the Objectory (OOSE) Process. Booch and Rumbaugh work at IBM, and Jacobson is an independent consultant.
