| editorial reviews amazon.com java modeling in color with uml--printed in color--provides four uml "archetypes" for common entities in business modeling. these have rather abstract names like the moment-interval. each archetype is assigned a different color in uml. the book uses these four archetypes to model 61 domain-specific business components for manufacturing (including suppliers and inventory control), facilities management, sales, employees, and organizations, plus accounting and document management. similar in spirit to software-design patterns, these uml components are catalogued with short prose descriptions and illustrated with uml. the detail here is often impressive, though the type is necessarily small. (fortunately, the cd-rom contains all these diagrams--including java source code--for use within your own designs.) the authors--all experts in uml--have done the heavy lifting here. the idea is to incorporate these components within your own projects. besides a catalog of expert components, this book describes the authors' feature-driven development (fdd) software-design process. (while there is one uml standard, design processes still proliferate.) fdd touts good productivity with a minimum of overhead. the authors argue that it can be used productively within today's ever-shorter business cycles. in all, this book features much more than just color-enhanced uml. it provides a foundation of uml (and java classes on the cd-rom) that can model most business problems. if you design with uml, you can surely benefit from this intelligent and visually savvy text. --richard dragan david anderson, modeler and designer "i went for a job interview. the interviewer asked me to model a payroll system and gave me an hour to work it out while he observed. so i built a model using pink moment-intervals, yellow roles, green things, and blue descriptions-classes, attributes, links, methods, interactions. after 25 minutes the interviewer stopped me, saying i had already gone well beyond what others struggle to do in a full hour! so my recommendation is: read this book! it's made a better modeler out of me and i'm sure it will do the same for you." see all editorial reviews -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- product details textbook binding: 221 pages .publisher: prentice hall ptr; har/cdr edition (june 15, 1999) language: english isbn-10: 013011510x isbn-13: 978-0130115102 product dimensions: 10.2 x 8.2 x 1 inches shipping weight: 2 pounds |
