90559-6 This is an essential guide to understanding object orientation using the new Unified Modeling Language (UML). James Odell and James Martin build a foundation that can be used to communicate with others using the new UML standard. Furthermore, they explain precisely how to build UML models based on ideas that are fundamental to human thinking-not just program-language specification. Finally, they show how their object-oriented foundation can be used to generate fully executable programs as well as to model and reengineer business processes and to integrate virtually any new technology. Object-Oriented Methods: A Foundation, UML Edition brings together all the basic ideas needed to specify any system, presenting a formally based foundation that can be understood by both "real-world" developers and formalists. It includes extensive examples and review questions and reflects recent work by the OMG's Object Analysis and Design Task Force. Based on the UML meta-model and notation, Odell and Martin: *Present the fundamental concepts of object orientation using the UML model and notation.* Provide a sound approach to modeling systems that is completely independent of programming considerations. *Clarify how to conceptualize system requirements using an OO approach that leads to sound design and programming efforts. *Show how an OO approach encourages serial, concurrent, and synchronized processing specification and incorporates event-driven and component-based technology. *Demonstrate how to develop systems that evolve with future changes in technology. *Identify powerful ways to reflect-and extend-OO concepts in the enterprise repository and data warehouse. Shows how OO can organize and interconnect many other systems approaches, including business rules, logic, functions, neural nets, SQL, and client-server. With exceptional insight and clarity, Object-Oriented Methods: A Foundation, UML Edition presents the best available approach to developing systems today-and planning for tomorrow.

The field of object orientation has evolved dramatically in the past several years, most recently with the introduction of the United Modeling Language (UML) - a standard approach to notation and modeling for object-oriented analysis and design. Now, world-renowned IT strategist James Martin, together with James Odell - a leader on the UML standardization effortjoin forces to deliver an insightful introduction to object-oriented methods using UML. This timely, authoritative, in-depth exploration of object-oriented analysis gives you a formal foundation for modeling both new software and new business processes. Object orientation and UML enable you to model regardless of language, to organize coherently all the technologies you wish to use, and to create designs that can evolve gracefully as new technologies and approaches come along. Object-Oriented Methods: A Foundation, UML Edition gives you the intellectual framework to make the most of object orientation no matter how you intend to apply it. Odell and Martin introduce more advanced structuresincluding constraints, rules, meta-modeling, power types, and dynamic and multiple classification - which make it possible to describe and specify systems with greater ease and power. They demonstrate the UML's approach to modeling object structure and behavior; review finite-state machine and scenario-based modeling; and present basic considerations for designing and implementing systems modeled with UML.
