Practical Software Engineering : Analysis and Design for the .NET Platform (實用軟體工程：.NET 平台的分析與設計)

Summary

Most would shudder to think if cities or automobiles were built in the same ad hoc fashion as most software. Still, Microsoft technologists often regard software development as more of a craft than a rigorous process. Given the mission-critical nature of today’s software solutions, however, such an approach is vital to ensuring that high-quality projects are delivered on time and within budget.

It is possible to create software in a controlled manner without sacrificing productivity or flexibility, says Enricos Manassis. All it takes is a solid grasp of process, methods, and technology. While many books plumb these topics individually, Practical Software Engineering is unique in that it focuses on the intersection of all three.

Each chapter explores development issues from the standpoint of:

• The Rational Unified Process (RUP)
• Object Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD)
• The Microsoft .NET platform

Through end-to-end coverage of a working application, the book’s tutorial shows practitioners how to tap the .NET platform—as others have harnessed the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE)—to develop complex enterprise solutions. The companion Web site (www.BooksREasy.com) offers a demo version of the sample application. It also provides complete source code for Visual Studio.NET and the UML model for Rational XDE, so readers can adapt and extend the sample application.

Microsoft technologists have long perceived rigorous approaches to be complex, intimidating, and ineffective. By demystifying processes and methods, Practical Software Engineering offers a roadmap to applying an engineered approach to real-world .NET projects. In doing so, it provides readers with a firm understanding of how to translate business issues into technological solutions.
