Unified Objects: Object-Oriented Programming Using C++ [With Disk]

AUTHOR Booch, Grady; Sadr, Babak; Booch, Grady
PUBLISHER Wiley-IEEE Computer Society PR (11/10/1997)
PRODUCT TYPE Hardcover (Hardcover)

Description
This book creates a balance between OOP and C++ in its coverage of the design and implementation of these approaches. It provides formal definitions for object-oriented concepts and describes how they relate to features in C++. The book uses graphical presentations to amplify the concepts featured in the text. The text uses an object-oriented notation that conveys the design of a system in clear and standard manner. This book primarily uses Booch-93 notation. It also provides an overview of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) which combines the Object Modeling Technique and Booch notations. The UML was developed by James Rumbaugh, Ivar Jacobsen, and Grady Booch at Rational Software Corporation. The presentation of Booch-93 and the UML allows you to select the notation that is most appropriate for your design.

This book provides you with an overview of object-oriented design, object-oriented programming, and correlates the features in C++ to the framework of an object model. To better enable you to build a solid foundation of the language, the text relates encapsulation, abstraction, modularity, and design hierarchies from the object model to C++ features. In addition, it introduces you to advanced topics such as distributed objects, including concurrency and persistence issues. The book is accompanied by a disk that contains the examples in the text.

Foreword by: Booch, Grady
Grady Booch is an IBM fellow and author of six best-selling books on object-oriented programming. He is world-reknowned as an originator of OO and founder of UML.

Robert A. Maksimchuk, as Research Director in the Unisys CTO Office, focuses on emerging modeling technologies to advance the strategic direction of the Unisys 3D-Visual Enterprise modeling framework. Bob brings an abundance of systems engineering, modeling, and object-oriented analysis and design expertise, in numerous industries, to this mission. He is the coauthor of the books "UML for Mere Mortals" and "UML for Database Design," has written various articles, has traveled worldwide as a featured speaker in numerous technology forums, and led workshops and seminars on UML and object-oriented development.

Michael W. Engle is a principal member of the engineering staff with the Lockheed Martin Corporation. He has extensive technical and management experience across the complete system development lifecycle, from project initiation through deployment and support in a variety of application domains. As a systems architect, Mike employs object-oriented analysis nad design techniques in complex systems development.

Dr. Bobbi Young is a Director of Research for the Unisys Chief Technology Office. She has many years of experience in the IT industry working with commercial companies and Department of Defense contractors. Dr. Young has been a consultant mentoring in program management, enterprise architecture, systems engineering, and object-oriented analysis and design. Throughout her career, she has focused on system lifecycle processes and methodologies, and enterprise architecture.

Jim Conallenis a software engineer in IBM Rational's Model Driven Development Strategy team, where he is actively involved in applying the Object Management Group's (OMG) Model Driven Architecture (MDA) initiative to IBM Rational's model tooling.

Kelli A. Houston is a Consulting IT Specialist at IBM Rational. She is the method architect for IBM's internal method authoring method and is part of the team responsible for integrating IBM's methods.
