Written at a very advanced level
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I absolutely recommend this book to anyone who has the patience and endurance to get through it. It is definately NOT easy reading. The material is extremely condensed with little or no redundancy, but it is the most complete and acurate technical book I have ever read. The excercises are great as well; not dumbed down unrealistically easy or multiple choice questions that give you the false impression that you've mastered the subject like many books contain, but very difficult and realistic problems. The authors obviously took their' time writing in.
A very good book on object-oriented modeling
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The book is composed of four parts: modeling concepts, analysis/design, implementation and large system issues.The first part describes the main concepts on object oriented modeling. The topics on object relationships (association, aggregation, generalization) are excellent.The second part, I consider that contains the best chapters. There are a lot of advices on how to develop database applications following object orientation and on how to choose a data management approach.The third part, about implemmentation, has good and bad chapters. I don't like the chapters on relational databases. They include valuable information on how to map classes to relational databases but some space is wasted with basic concepts on relational databases and the main example is developed using Microsoft Access.The last part is the smallest one and contains introductory topics on distributed databases, integration of applications and reverse engineering.The class diagrams are in OMT notation.
One of the OO bibles
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
A landmark in OO literature: always was and always will be. Taking things from step zero to discussing very advanced issues. The notation used is the one where UML has borrowed most of its elements (especially the class diagrams). The process it describes has become the typical process for OO development (especially 2nd generation OMT as described through a series of articles in JOOP by Rumbaugh). In all, a book that leaves nothing uncovered from notation to process and more importantly in depth discussions on OO concepts and techniques that will always be true. Finally, this is one of the few books that discuss how to implement an OO design into a non-OO language such as C, Pascal, Fortran etc. END
Unvaluable resource for oo-software/database development
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Great combination of hands-on and conceptual understanding of object oriented software development and database design/programming. If you are new to the object-oriented world and have experience with procedural programming and database applications, this is the book to get. It will take you directly to the object-oriented view and how to use OMT/UML to use a sound and pragmatic process to achieve those goals. It might actually be the only book you need !!
An excellent book for OOAD
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book is an excellent book for beginners as well as advanced guys in the charismatic field of OMT and OOAD. The book gives an excellent description of Object Modelling, Functional modelling and Dynamic modelling. The examples are good and understandable but they can be simplified. Over all an interesting and good book.
