Description

The book begins with concepts of data and object. This helps in exploring the rationale that guide high level programming language (HLL) design and object oriented frameworks. Once past this post, the book moves on to expand on software design concerns. The book emphasizes the centrality of Parnas’s separation of concerns in evolving software designs and architecture. The book extensively explores modelling frameworks such as Unified Modelling Language (UML) and Petri net based methods. Next, the book covers architectural principles and software engineering practices such as Agile – emphasizing software testing during development. It winds up with case studies demonstrating how systems evolve from basic concepts to final products for quality software designs.
