Publisher: O'Reilly

Pages: 234

System developers have used modeling languages for decades to specify, visualize, construct, and document systems. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is one of those languages. UML makes it possible for team members to collaborate by providing a common language that applies to a multitude of different systems. Essentially, it enables you to communicate solutions in a consistent, tool-supported language.

Today, UML has become the standard method for modeling software systems, which means you're probably confronting this rich and expressive language more than ever before. And even though you may not write UML diagrams yourself, you'll still need to interpret diagrams written by others.

UML 2.0 in a Nutshell from O'Reilly feels your pain. It's been crafted for professionals like you who must read, create, and understand system artifacts expressed using UML. Furthermore, it's been fully revised to cover version 2.0 of the language.

This comprehensive new edition not only provides a quick-reference to all UML 2.0 diagram types, it also explains key concepts in a way that appeals to readers already familiar with UML or object-oriented programming concepts.

Topics include:

  • The role and value of UML in projects

  • The object-oriented paradigm and its relation to the UML

  • An integrated approach to UML diagrams

  • Class and Object, Use Case, Sequence, Collaboration, Statechart, Activity, Component, and Deployment Diagrams

  • Extension Mechanisms

  • The Object Constraint Language (OCL)


If you're new to UML, a tutorial with realistic examples has even been included to help you quickly familiarize yourself with the system.

Author:Benneth Christiansson
Format:PDF

Benneth Christiansson Bio:
Benneth Christiansson is a former senior lecturer and
researcher at Karlstad university.
Nowadays he works as Curriculum Manager, Open Source
Evangelist and Senior Consultant at Redpill Linpro AB.
The largest provider of Open Source solutions and services
in the Nordic area.
Benneth occupies a genuine experience as both instructor
and author, with several published books and publications.
The idea that lead to this book originated during the
participation of a Java Architect training program taught at
Logica Sverige AB Karlstad office. During the course the authors
identified the lack of a quick-guide to the basic GoF design
patterns. A book that could be used as a bare bone reference as well
as a learning companion for understanding design patterns. In the book
all patterns are exemplified using Java and UML2 notation. The book
also focuses on benefits, drawbacks, applicability and indicates
successful real life usage of the individual patterns.
Co-authors are all employees at different Logica Sweden AB offices.
