Covering the breadth of this core topic, Object--Oriented Analysis and Design provides a thorough grounding in object--oriented concepts, the software development process, UML and multi--tier technologies. Covering the breadth of a large topic, this book provides athorough grounding in object-oriented concepts, the softwaredevelopment process, UML and multi-tier technologies.After covering some basic ground work underpinning OO softwareprojects, the book follows the steps of a typical developmentproject (Requirements Capture - Design - Specification & Test),showing how an abstract problem is taken through to a concretesolution. The book is programming language agnostic - so code iskept to a minimum to avoid detail and deviation into implementationminutiae. A single case study running through the text provides arealistic example showing development from an initial proposalthrough to a finished system. Key artifacts such as therequirements document and detailed designs are included. For eachaspect of the case study, there is an exercise for the readertoproduce similar documents for a different system.
