Visual Modeling with IBM Rational Software Architect and UML (DeveloperWorks Series)

Author: Terry Quatrani

"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 Fellow and Master 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 thousands of professionals master analysis, design, and implementation with IBM Rational technologies.

Renowned UML expert Terry Quatrani and J2EE/SOA evangelist Jim Palistrant walk you through visualizing all facets of system architecture at every stage of the project lifecycle. Whether you're an architect, developer, or project manager, you'll discover how to leverage IBM Rational's latest innovations to optimize any project.

Coverage includes

• Making the most of model-driven development with Rational Software Architect's integrated design and development tools
• Understanding visual modeling: goals, techniques, language, and processes
• Beginning any visual modeling project: sound principles and best practices
• Capturing and documenting functional requirements with use case models
• Creating analysis models that begin to reveal your optimal system implementation
• Building design models that abstract your implementation model and source code
• Using implementation models to represent your system's physical composition, from subsystems to executables and data
• Transforming these models to actual running code

The IBM Press developerWorks® Series is a unique undertaking in which print books and the Web are mutually supportive. The publications in this series are complemented by resources on the developerWorks Web site on ibm.com. Icons throughout the book alert the reader to these valuable resources.

Object Design or The Complete Idiots Guide to Starting an Ebay Business

Object Design: Roles, Responsibilities, and Collaborations

Author: Rebecca Wirfs Brock

If you create software using object-oriented languages and tools, then Responsibility-Driven Design has likely influenced your work. For over ten years Responsibility-Driven Design methodology has been the standard bearer of the behavioral approach to designing object-oriented software. Object Design: Roles, Responsibilities, and Collaborations focuses on the practice of designing objects as integral members of a community where each object has specific roles and responsibilities. The authors present the latest practices and techniques of Responsibility-Driven Design and show how you can apply them as you develop modern object-based applications.

Working within this conceptual framework, Rebecca Wirfs-Brock and Alan McKean present how user requirements, system architecture, and design patterns all contribute to the design of an effective object model. They introduce a rich vocabulary that designers can use to discuss aspects of their designs, discuss design trade-offs, and offer practical guidelines for enhancing the reliability and flexibility of applications. In addition, case studies and real-world examples demonstrate how the principles and techniques of Responsibility-Driven Design apply to real-world software designs.

You'll find coverage of such topics as:

Strategies for selecting and rejecting candidate objects in an emerging design model

Object role stereotypes and how to identify objects' behaviors

How to characterize objects using role stereotypes

Allocating responsibilities to appropriate objects

Developing a collaboration model

Strategies for designing applicationcontrol centers

Documenting and describing a design, focusing on use cases, design conversations, and annotations

Strategies for enhancing reliability, including handling exceptions and recovering from errors

How to characterize software variations and design to support them for greater flexibility

How to categorize and treat various kinds of design problems

As all experienced designers know, software design is part art and inspiration and part consistent effort and solid technique. Object Design: Roles, Responsibilities, and Collaborations will help all software designers--from students to seasoned professionals--develop both the concrete reasoning skills and the design expertise necessary to produce responsible software designs.
