Management Of The Object-Oriented Development Process

Management of the Object-Oriented Development Process consists of a series of high-level discussions on technical and managerial issues related to object-oriented development. This book introduces object-oriented development techniques, including modeling languages, programming languages, reusable patterns and software development processes. It discusses the ongoing trends of object-oriented development, including emerging e-business development frameworks, executable UML and requirements engineering. There is also a focus managerial issues such as project management and software evaluation, and how to manage the paradigm shift from structured to object-oriented development.

This process offers systems developers, project managers, information systems students and researchers technical skills as well as strategic insights on how to manage software projects, deploy object-oriented software development processes, understand the current trends and make the transition from structured to object-oriented techniques.

The book is organized into 16 chapters. Each chapter emphasizes state-of-the-art developments in a particular area, identifies important shortcomings, discusses current activities, offers new insights into the problematics, and proposes opportunities for improving the management of object-oriented software development projects.
