Requirements Analysis & System Design with CD, 2nd Edition

Description

This book describes the methods and techniques used in analysis and design, emphasizing object-oriented techniques that can be applied to software development of large-scale applications. Using a teach-by-example method throughout, the principles, methods, and techniques of good analysis design are covered. Separate chapters are dedicated to a guided tutorial in analysis and in design, and four application areas are discussed to help explain independent topics that build into running case studies through the book. A fifth application is described in end-of-chapter exercises that can be used to formulate student assignments or specifications for a larger project. The difficulties and intricacies of large-scale object-oriented development are acknowledged and students are given a balanced blend of practical explanation and theoretical insight.
