This book presents the collected writings of OMT guru Dr James Rumbaugh. These articles - all published in the Journal of Object-Oriented Programming - encompass the development, refinement, and current state of OMT. The book includes a summary of OMT notation and process, with a description of changes needed for the new Unified Modeling Language. Complete with numerous illustrated examples, this collection is a hands-on guide to the use of OMT from many different viewpoints. It shows how to use object-oriented modeling to think clearly about software problems and solve them cleanly and effectively.
- Presents an accurate picture of the industry's progress and development
- Applies generally to most varieties of object-oriented modeling, so choice of method is not critical
- Uses concrete examples to illuminate abstract theoretical ideas
Reviews & endorsements
'The book is full of practical advice on a wide range of topics and the clear writing and extensive use of examples make the material very accessible. I recommend this book very highly.' Journal of The Association of C & C++ Users
