Publisher's Synopsis
Object-Oriented Software Development in Java provides broad and coherent coverage of object-oriented technology, teaching object-oriented design and construction using Java to students with some experience programming in any language. Focusing on design and programming, educator and practitioner Xiaoping Jia instills the object-oriented way of thinking through the use of design patterns and frameworks, study of the design of the Java Class Libraries, and illustration of incremental software development.
With the popularity of C++ and Java, program design has become as important to individual commercial programmers as it has been to programmers developing immense government-sponsored software projects. Designed for a course on object-oriented design at the Junior-, Senior-, and Graduate-level, Object-Oriented Software Development in Java prepares students for the industry's move toward object-oriented languages by introducing design concepts early and then moving on to Java.
