Synopsis

Domain Architectures is a comprehensive catalog of the domain architectures essential to software developers using object--oriented technology and UML to solve real--life problems. Providing a unique top--down view of systems, the book also provides quick access to landmarks and references to domain architectures. The ability to describe applications, in terms of the properties they share, offers software designers a vast new landscape for implementing software reuse. The ideal professionala s handbook. * Helps readers reduce trial and error and increase productivity by reusing tried and trusted ideas * Models are described and documented using UML (incorporating UML 2.0) models and meta models

From the Back Cover

Domain Architectures describes and documents a number of recurring patterns and models which emerge in real-life software projects. A domain architecture is an archetype of a system designed to show functionality, behaviour and structure traits. It provides a top down view of a system - which has profound implications for system analysts, software developers and architects. It can enable developers to borrow or learn from design solutions that have worked in the same domain, and help to predict major system requirements.

This book describes how to accommodate system requirements by integrating them with one or more instances of a domain architecture. The artefacts of this process can then be mapped to the popular POSA and GOF design patterns.

Described and documented using UML (incorporating UML 2.0) models and meta-models, and concentrating on medium to large-scale systems, the domain architectures described in this book will help software professionals to build a stable architectural framework for high-quality systems.

The five domain architectures presented are:

• Manufacturing (MAN)
• Management and Information Systems (MIS)
• Process Control and Real-Time (PCS)
• Interactive and Access Control Systems (INT)
• Access Control Systems (ACS)

Domain Architectures is a catalog or repository of proven solutions, and is a handbook and a reference for software professionals using object-oriented technology and UML to solve real-life problems.
