This computer science work is based on the principles of object-oriented programming, since object technology is now considered a vital component in all software development. Supported by the friendly, consistent, and relatively easy-to-learn object oriented language Eiffel, it presents an entirely different approach to learning computer science by introducing the idea of "modelling" first, and then "programming" as only one part of the overall process. A complete tutorial - worked examples and problem sets are included throughout.
Richard Wiener has been a faculty member in the computer science department at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs since 1977. He is currently the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Object Technology published by the ETH in Zurich, Switzerland.
