Object-Oriented Analysis and Design: Understanding System Development with UML 2.0

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. Beginning with the basic ground work underpinning object-oriented software projects, it follows the steps of a typical development project (Requirements Capture, Design, Specification & Testing), showing how an abstract problem is taken through to a concrete solution. The authors take a programming language agnostic approach - so code is kept to a minimum to avoid detail and deviation into implementation minutiae.
A single case study running through the text provides a realistic example of software development, from an initial proposal through to a finished system. Key artefacts such as the requirements document and detailed designs are included, plus exercises in each aspect of the case study, to enable readers to produce similar documents for a different system.

Database Design for Smarties: Using UML for Data Modeling Book

Whether building a relational, object-relational, or object-oriented database, database developers are increasingly relying on an object-oriented design approach as the best way to meet user needs and performance criteria. This book teaches you how to use the Unified Modeling Language-the official standard of the Object Management Group-to develop and implement the best possible design for your database.
Inside, the author leads you step by step through the design process, from requirements analysis to schema generation. You'll learn to express stakeholder needs in UML use cases and actor diagrams, to translate UML entities into database components, and to transform the resulting design into relational, object-relational, and object-oriented schemas for all major DBMS products.
* Teaches you everything you need to know to design, build, and test databases using an OO model.
* Shows you how to use UML, the accepted standard for database design according to OO principles.
* Explains how to transform your design into a conceptual schema for relational, object-relational, and object-oriented DBMSs.
* Offers practical examples of design for Oracle, SQL Server, Sybase, Informix, Object Design, POET, and other database management systems.
* Focuses heavily on re-using design patterns for maximum productivity and teaches you how to certify completed designs for re-use.

Professional UML with Visual Studio .NET

If you want to use Visio for Enterprise Architects to quickly design and create enterprise software, this is the book for you.

The integration of Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Architect and Visio for Enterprise Architects is a formidable combination. Visio offers powerful diagramming capabilities, including such things as creating UML models, mapping out and generating databases, and aiding the development of distributed systems. Visio?s integration with Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Architect means that C# or Visual Basic(r) .NET code can be generated from UML diagrams, thus giving your projects a significant kick-start, and Visual Studio .NET projects can also be reverse engineered to UML models.

This book will finally help you make the most of Visio?s time- and labor-saving features, and unleash Visio?s power for your enterprise development.

To use this book you must be comfortable with the basic concepts of UML.

What you will learn from this book
* Diagramming business components in Visio
* Generating code from UML models
* Reverse engineering Visual Studio .NET projects into UML models, with or without source code
* Documenting projects with UML and Visio
* Designing distributed applications with Visio diagrams
* Using Object-Role Modeling and round-trip engineering for database design

?This book will definitely help any developer wishing to get a jump-start on using Visio for Enterprise Architects in their traditional development process. The book meshes traditional UML knowledge with .NET development model specifics, resulting in a deep understanding of how Visio for Enterprise Architects can speed up software design and development time.?
-Andrew Krowczyk, Senior Software Developer, Zurich North America

UML for DataBase Design

The Unified Modeling Language (UML), the standard graphical notation for modeling business and software application needs, has emerged as an effective modeling tool for database design. When used as a common modeling language for the many facets of system development, the UML can serve as a unifying framework that facilitates the integration of database models with the rest of a system design. This pragmatic guide introduces you to the UML and leads you through the process of UML-based database modeling and design. The book presents the different types of UML diagrams, explaining how they apply to the database world, and shows how data modeling with the UML can be tied into the Rational Unified Process. UML for Database Design is structured around the database design process: business use case modeling, business object modeling, database requirements definition, analysis and preliminary design, and, finally, detailed design and deployment. For each phase of development the book describes the overall objectives and workflow of that phase, the status of the case study, the relevant UML constructs, and the nuts and bolts of database modeling and design with the UML. Drawing on their extensive industry experience, the authors reveal the trials and tribulations of database development teams, lessons learned, and pointers for success. Topics covered include:

• The business use case model
• Activity and sequence diagrams for modeling database functions and tasks
• Moving from the business to system model
• Class diagrams and statecharts
• Mapping classes to tables
• Transformation of attributes
• Rational's UML Profile for Database Design
• Creating tables from classes
• DDL scripts, component diagrams, and deployment diagrams
• Jump starting the database design process

A case study runs throughout the book to illustrate key concepts and techniques, and appendixes containing the actual UML models from this case study are used to catalog the type and extent of models that would be developed for such a system. Practical, concrete, and based on real-life experience, UML for Database Design brings you exactly the information you need to begin working with the UML and take full advantage of the technology for high-quality database modeling and design.
