Synopsis

Object-Oriented Software Development in Java provides broad and coherent coverage of object-oriented technology, teaching object-oriented design and construction using Java to students with some experience programming in any language. Focusing on design and programming, educator and practitioner Xiaoping Jia instills the object-oriented way of thinking through the use of design patterns and frameworks, study of the design of the Java Class Libraries, and illustration of incremental software development.

With the popularity of C++ and Java, program design has become as important to individual commercial programmers as it has been to programmers developing immense government-sponsored software projects. Designed for a course on object-oriented design at the Junior-, Senior-, and Graduate-level, Object-Oriented Software Development in Java prepares students for the industry's move toward object-oriented languages by introducing design concepts early and then moving on to Java.

From the Back Cover

Object-oriented software development has matured significantly over the past several years. The convergence of object-oriented modeling techniques and notations, the development of object-oriented frameworks and design patterns, and the evolution of object-oriented programming languages have been essential in the progression of this technology.

Object-Oriented Software Development in Java: Styles, Patterns, and Frameworks focuses on developing skills in designing software―particularly in writing well-designed, medium-sized object-oriented programs. It provides a broad and coherent coverage of object-oriented technology, including object-oriented modeling using the Unified Modeling Language (UML), object-oriented design using Design Patterns, and object-oriented programming using Java.

The book uses the Java 2 platform throughout, introducing such topics as Swing, collections, and RMI. The material is presented from both a theoretical and a practical perspective, instilling the object-oriented way of thinking through the use of design patterns, exploration of the design of the Java Class Libraries, and illustration of incremental software development.
