In this eagerly awaited second edition, Grady Booch draws upon the rich and varied results of those projects and offers improved methods for object development and a new, unified notation. With numerous examples implemented in C++, Booch illustrates essential concepts, explains the method, and shows successful applications in a variety of fields. Booch also gives pragmatic advice on a host of issues, including classification, implementation strategies, and cost-effective project management. A two-time winner of Software Development's coveted Jolt Cola Product Excellence Award!


From Book News, Inc.
Intended for anyone who implements or manages object technologies, distinguishes between good and bad object-oriented analysis and design and shows how to evaluate architectural tradeoffs to manage complexity. Presents a new, unified notation that incorporates the best ideas from Booch's notation (of the first edition) and other widely-used methods. Includes numerous examples of real-world projects, all of which are now implemented in C++. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

From the Back Cover
The first edition of Object-Oriented Design with Applications was instrumental in making object-oriented technology a practical reality--hundreds of projects applied Booch's notation and process to complex problems in diverse domains. In this eagerly-awaited new edition, Grady Booch draws upon the rich and varied results of these projects to offer improved methods for object development and a new, unified notation. With numerous examples, all of which are now implemented in C++, Booch illustrates essential concepts, explains the method, and shows successful applications in a variety of fields. You'll also find pragmatic advice on a host of issues including classification, implementation strategies, and cost-effective project management. Features of the New Edition: Presents a new, unified notation that incorporates the best ideas from Booch's notation and other widely-used methods Uses C++, rapidly emerging as a standard programming language for object development, in all programming examples and applications Includes new examples of real world projects, including a client/server architecture and an application framework Distinguishes between good and bad object-oriented analysis and design and shows how to evaluate architectural tradeoffs to manage complexity Includes extensive new detail on the process and pragmatics of object-oriented analysis and design This is the essential reference for anyone who implements or manages object technologies, or who wishes to begin exploration of this important new paradigm.
