Object-Oriented Software Design and Construction with C++

Reseña del editor

The Object-Oriented Software Design and Construction with C++ organization integrates object-oriented design strategies and software engineering issues. This text and reference book presents object-oriented language features in a rational, coherent manner because the features are related to the underlying concepts in object-oriented programming and to the goals, problems, and methods of software engineering. The book assumes no previous background in object-oriented programming or C++ syntax. Features: *An interactive companion web site for teachers, students and professionals. *Describes the broad concepts of object-oriented programming in C++ while giving pointers to other programming languages such as Java. *Web site provides Java applets and other web-based mechanisms to enhance the conceptual presentation with animation, interaction and feedback. *Describes tools and practices needed to develop object-oriented systems as well as language features. *Includes exercises and projects using an object-oriented library for building GUI-based systems.* Demonstrates event-driven systems useful in implementing operating systems, computer architecture, networking, and similar software that involves asynchronous events. *Introduces students and professionals to design patterns and design representations for object-oriented systems. *Offers the benefit of an enriched, visual presentation through on-line questions and program exercises through the companion web site viewable through standard browsers.
