For CS2/CS7 Data Structures courses. Also appropriate for first- and second-year Object Oriented Design courses where instructors also want to re-enforce data structures from an object-oriented perspective.
Using a unique parallel-coverage approach, this text 1) presents the fundamentals of data structures from arrays and lists to balanced trees, graphs, and files (including their design, use, implementation, and analysis); and 2) gives an introduction to object-oriented software engineering using UML (including the context diagram, use cases, sequence diagrams, architectural and detailed design, implementation, and testing). It can be used (a) to mostly present data structures with little software engineering, (b) to present both topics in parallel, or (c) to review data structures from an object-oriented perspective and then concentrate on software engineering at the first or second year level. The text uses Eiffel as the implementation language, an object-oriented language particularly well-suited to the clean presentation of data structures and software engineering concepts. Two case studies are included to illustrate the steps followed in an object-oriented development process for the analysis and design of non-trivial systems.

From the Back Cover
Designed for advanced first- and second-year computer science students, or professionals interested in Eiffel; this text presents all the key data structures and software engineering concepts for use in CS-2 or CS-7 level courses. The authors provide a comprehensive and thorough introduction to data structures using state-of-the-art object-oriented analysis and design. Centered around the implementation language, Eiffel, this text offers the full-featured Object-Oriented language specifically designed for developing large Object-Oriented systems. This book offers a unique blend of abstract data types, software design, engineering, and object-oriented testing in a highly accessible presentation.
FEATURES
- Use of a subset of the UML―Shows how to use UML for analysis and modeling.
- CD-ROM included―CD contains an Eiffel compiler and development environment, all the code for the text, and the data structures library.
- Modeling of the Problem Domain―Absent in other texts, this book models the problem domain that an object-oriented project must begin with.
- Two case studies―Illustrates the steps followed in an object-oriented development process for the analysis and design of non-trivial systems.
- Extensive Data Structures Library―Consists of the standard data structures, including lists, stacks, queues, trees, balanced trees, graphs, and files.
- Extensive Reference for the Eiffel language―A full-featured object-oriented language, Eiffel, specifically developed for large object-oriented systems.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to HPB-Red, Carrollton, Texas, U.S.A., +1 800-883-2114, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
