Model Driven Architecture with Executable UML»rank: 723499by: Chris Raistrick, Paul Francis, John Wright
: :This book offers insight into a revolution in software development that will ultimately lead to automatic executable code generation directly from model specifications. Using the most widely adopted software modelling language, UML, it demonstrates the way to build robust specifications based on OMG's Model Driven Architecture (MDA). Chapters then describe the steps needed to move directly to executable code using Executable UML (XUML). The volume will be a useful reference for professionals concerned with the future of software development for medium- and large-scale projects. |
Model-Driven Testing: Using the UML Testing Profile»rank: 923797by: Paul Baker, Zhen Ru Dai, Jens Grabowski, Øystein Haugen, Ina Schieferdecker, Clay Williams
: :Model-driven development has become the most important new paradigm in software development and has already demonstrated considerable impact in reducing time to market and improving product quality. However, the development of high-quality systems not only requires systematic development processes but also systematic test processes. This book is about systematic, model-driven test processes in the context of UML. As UML provides only limited means for the design and development of test artifacts, a consortium was formed by the Object Management Group (OMG) to develop a UML profile for model-driven testing – the UML Testing Profile (UTP), an official OMG standard since 2005. Written by the original members of this standardization group, this book ... |

Software Engineering Techniques Applied to Agricultural Systems: An Object-Oriented and UML Approach (Applied Optimization)»rank: 894849by: Petraq J. Papajorgji, Panos M. Pardalos
: :Software Engineering Techniques Applied to Agricultural Systems presents cutting-edge software engineering techniques for designing and implementing better agricultural software systems based on the object-oriented paradigm and the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The book is divided in two parts: the first part presents concepts of the object-oriented paradigm and the UML notation of these concepts, and the second part provides a number of examples of applications that use the material presented in the first part. The examples presented illustrate the techniques discussed, focusing on how to construct better models using objects and UML diagrams. More advanced concepts such as distributed systems and examples of how to build these systems are presented in the ... |
The Object Primer: The Application Developer's Guide to Object Orientation and the UML»rank: 796218by: Scott W. Ambler
: :Scott Ambler, author of Building Object Applications that Work, Process Patterns, and More Process Patterns, has revised his acclaimed first book, The Object Primer. Long prized in its original edition by both students and professionals as the best introduction to object-oriented technology, now this book is completely up-to-date with new material in every chapter. There are also new chapters on good OO programming techniques and OO software testing. All modeling notation has been rewritten in UML notation. Review questions at the end of each chapter allow readers to test their newly acquired knowledge. In addition, the author takes time to reflect on the lessons learned over the past few years by discussing ... |

Object-Oriented Project Management with UML»rank: 815084by: Murray Cantor
: :Almost all software projects are risky. The goal of every project manager is to somehow deal with the cost and schedule uncertainty while meeting your customer's needs. In Object-Oriented Project Management with UML, Murray Cantor describes an elegant, UML-based approach to managing object-oriented projects guaranteed to deliver high-quality software on time and within budget. * Sample project schedules, budgets, database templates for managing use cases, and a work-breakdown structure * A spreadsheet workbook for managing incremental development * A development tracking diagram Prior to joining TASC, Dr. Cantor was a development manager at IBM, where he oversaw the development of high-end graphics and multimedia systems. Review:Filled with real-world advice for managing ... |
UML for Database Design (Addison-Wesley Object Technology Series)»rank: 880653by: Eric J. Naiburg, Robert A. Maksimchuk
: :Typically, analysis, development, and database teams work for different business units, and use different design notations. With UML and the Rational Unified Process (RUP), however, they can unify their efforts -- eliminating time-consuming, error-prone translations, and accelerating software to market. In this book, two data modeling specialists from Rational Software Corporation show exactly how to model data with UML and RUP, presenting proven processes and start-to-finish case studies. The book utilizes a running case study to bring together the entire process of data modeling with UML. Each chapter dissects a different stage of the data modeling process, from requirements through implementation. For each stage, the authors cover workflow and participants' roles, key ... |

Visual Modeling with IBM(R) Rational(R) Software Architect and UML(TM) (developerWorks Series)»rank: 342145by: Terry Quatrani, Jim Palistrant
: :'Terry's style is always direct, approachable, and pragmatic. Abstraction is hard, and visualizing abstractions is as well, but here she'll guide you in doing both using Rational Software Architect.' --From the Foreword by Grady Booch, IBM FellowMaster UML 2.0 Visual Modeling with IBM Rational Software Architect Using IBM Rational Software Architect, you can unify all aspects of software design and development. It allows you to exploit new modeling language technology to architect systems more effectively and develop them more productively. Now, two of IBM's leading experts have written the definitive, start-to-finish guide to UML 2-based visual modeling with Rational Software Architect. You'll learn hands-on, using a simplified case study that's already helped ... |

The Elements of UML™ Style (Sigs Reference Library)»rank: 459190by: Scott W. Ambler
: :The Elements of UML Style is for all developers who create models using the Unified Modeling Language (UML), especially those in teams where understandability and consistency are critical. Just as Strunk & White's The Elements of Style provides rules of usage for writing using the English language, this text furnishes a set of rules for modeling in the UML. Scott Ambler describes a collection of standards and guidelines for creating effective UML diagrams that are concise and easy to understand. This book provides conventions for: Class diagrams, Use case diagrams, Sequence Diagrams, Activity diagrams, State chart diagrams, Collaboration diagrams, Deployment diagrams, and Component diagrams. The Elements of UML Style sets the rules ... |
