Appropriate for courses in Object-Oriented Programming. The first book to apply the Unified Modeling Language (UML) to communicating object-oriented analysis and design results. You'll learn the fundamental concepts of object-oriented analysis and design, and then walk step-by-step through the entire process of analysis and design- using a single case study that takes full advantage of UML and design patterns.

Master the Unified Modeling Language, the new standard for object orientation.
It's not enough just to learn an object-oriented language. A proficient programmer must also have the ability to design robust, scalable, maintainable systems. Applying UML and Patterns was written especially to provide the foundation for a complete understanding of the object paradigm, and how to put it to practical use.
Applying UML and Patterns provides beginning object programmers with a detailed activity roadmap to guide them through each step of requirements, analysis, design, and coding. This book strongly emphasizes translating theoretical concepts to practical applications, including:
- Mapping object-oriented diagrams directly to Java code
- Expressing models using UML
- Integrating patterns for analysis and design
- Creating layered architectures
- Building frameworks
Using a single integrated case study throughout the book, Applying UML and Patterns provides a comprehensive, hands-on approach that gives a thorough grounding to beginning and intermediate programmers.
This book is also available as part of Applying UML and Patterns - The Complete Video Course (ISBN: 0-13-025559-9).
