788. |  Beyond Software Architecture: Creating and Sustaining Winning Solutions By: Luke Hohmann Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Publication Date: 30-JAN-2003 Insert Date: 26-MAR-2003 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Beyond Software Architecture: Creating and Sustaining Winning Solutions Praise for Beyond Software Architecture
“Luke Hohmann is that rare software technologist who views
software development from the viewpoint of the end user. He
passionately believes that one hour spent with an end user is worth
many hours making software architectural choices or days
documenting perceived user requirements. Most of what is written
about software development focuses on methods used to design and
develop robust software. Luke’s latest effort, Beyond
Software Architecture, illuminates the more mundane aspects of
creating true business solutions by supporting the user...

790. |  Facts and Fallacies of Software Engineering By: Robert L. Glass Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Publication Date: 28-OCT-2002 Insert Date: 25-MAR-2003 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Facts and Fallacies of Software Engineering The practice of building software is a
“new kid on the block” technology. Though it may not
seem this way for those who have been in the field for most of
their careers, in the overall scheme of professions, software
builders are relative “newbies.”
In the short history of the software field,
a lot of facts have been identified, and a lot of fallacies
promulgated. Those facts and fallacies are what this book is
about.
There’s a problem with those
facts–and, as you might imagine, those fallacies. Many of
these fundamentally important facts are learned by a software
engineer, but over the...

that support object-oriented programming within C++: constructor
semantics, temporary generation, support for encapsulation,
inheritance, and "the virtuals"--virtual functions and virtual
inheritance. This book shows how your understanding the underlying
implementation models can help you code more efficiently and with
greater confidence. Lippman dispells the misinformation and myths
about the overhead and complexity associated with C++, while
pointing out areas in which costs and trade offs, sometimes hidden,
do exist. He then...

796. |  Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Publication Date: 25-OCT-2002 Insert Date: 20-MAR-2003 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Testing Extreme Programming The rapid rise in popularity of Extreme Programming (XP) has put
the practice of software testing squarely in the spotlight of
application development. At one time, testing was a neglected
practice, a highly specialized activity that came as an
afterthought as complex, code-intensive projects were rushed to
completion. But in today's world of escalating quality
expectations, testing is a key component of the development
process.
XP accelerates testing by demanding its complete integration
with development. This in turn has pushed software professionals to
rethink their traditional attitudes...

797. |  Visual Modeling with Rational Rose 2002 and UML By: Terry Quatrani Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Publication Date: 09-OCT-2002 Insert Date: 20-MAR-2003 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Visual Modeling with Rational Rose 2002 and UML Within the space of just a few years, the Unified Modeling
Language (UML) has emerged as the design medium of choice for
developing large-scale distributed object applications. The UML's
standard semantics and notation for describing object structure and
behavior make it particularly well suited to this function.
Augmented by the Rational Unified Process, an extensive set of
software development guidelines, and the Rational Rose visual
modeling tool, the UML greatly facilitates the process of
developing quality object-oriented applications that meet both
deadlines and requirements.
