Object-oriented Defect Management of Software


Book Description

-- The first book to systematically address defect prevention in object-oriented projects.-- Includes practical tools, templates, checklists and other productivity tools.-- Covers both static and dynamic approaches: fully compatible with UML, RUP, and OPEN!This is the first systematic guide to defect identification, correction, and prevention in object-oriented software development projects. Houman Younessi covers every aspect of defect reduction, going far beyond testing to cover every key aspect of the software development process, from planning through software delivery. Younessi provides hands-on tools, templates, checklists, and other productivity tools that project team members can use to begin improving software quality immediately. The techniques presented in this book are entirely compatible with today's leading tools, notation schemes, and methodologies, including the UML modeling standard, and both the RUP (Rational Unified Process) and OPEN process models. For every developer, manager, quality professional, researcher, and student concerned with improving software quality.




OBJECT-ORIENTED SOFTWARE ENGINEERING


Book Description

This comprehensive and well-written book presents the fundamentals of object-oriented software engineering and discusses the recent technological developments in the field. It focuses on object-oriented software engineering in the context of an overall effort to present object-oriented concepts, techniques and models that can be applied in software estimation, analysis, design, testing and quality improvement. It applies unified modelling language notations to a series of examples with a real-life case study. The example-oriented approach followed in this book will help the readers in understanding and applying the concepts of object-oriented software engineering quickly and easily in various application domains. This book is designed for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of computer science and engineering, computer applications, and information technology. KEY FEATURES : Provides the foundation and important concepts of object-oriented paradigm. Presents traditional and object-oriented software development life cycle models with a special focus on Rational Unified Process model. Addresses important issues of improving software quality and measuring various object-oriented constructs using object-oriented metrics. Presents numerous diagrams to illustrate object-oriented software engineering models and concepts. Includes a large number of solved examples, chapter-end review questions and multiple choice questions along with their answers.




Software Engineering with UML


Book Description

This book presents the analysis, design, documentation, and quality of software solutions based on the OMG UML v2.5. Notably it covers 14 different modelling constructs including use case diagrams, activity diagrams, business-level class diagrams, corresponding interaction diagrams and state machine diagrams. It presents the use of UML in creating a Model of the Problem Space (MOPS), Model of the Solution Space (MOSS) and Model of the Architectural Space (MOAS). The book touches important areas of contemporary software engineering ranging from how a software engineer needs to invariably work in an Agile development environment through to the techniques to model a Cloud-based solution.




Knowledge-based Software Engineering


Book Description

JCKBSE aims to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to discuss the latest developments in the areas of knowledge engineering and software engineering.

Intelligent Information Technology


Book Description

The 7th International Conference on Information Technology (CIT 2004) was held in Hyderabad, India, during December 20–23, 2004. The CIT 2004 was a forum where researchers from various areas of information technology and its applications could stimulate and exchange ideas on technological advancements. CIT, organizedby the Orissa InformationTechnologySociety (OITS), has emerged as one of the major international conferences in India and is fast becoming the premier forum for the presentation of the latest research and development in the critical area of information technology. The last six conferences attracted reputed researchers from around the world, and CIT 2004 took this trend forward. This conference focused on the latest research ?ndings on all topics in the area of information technology. Although the natural focus was on computer science issues, research results contributed from management, business and other disciplines formed an integral part. We received more than 200 papers from over 27 countries in the areas of com- tational intelligence, neural networks, mobile and adhoc networks, security, databases, softwareengineering,signal andimageprocessing,andInternetandWWW-basedc- puting. The programme committee, consisting of eminent researchers, academicians and practitioners, ?nally selected 43 full papers on the basis of reviewer grades. This proceedings contains the research papers selected for presentation at the c- ference and this is the ?rst time that the proceedingshave been published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. The poster papers are being printed as a separate conference proceedings.
