Book Synopsis Formal Object-Oriented Development by : Kevin Lano
Download or read book Formal Object-Oriented Development written by Kevin Lano. This book was released on 2012-12-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Formal Object-Oriented Development provides a comprehensive overview of the use of formal object-oriented methods; it covers how and where they should be introduced into the development process, how they can be introduced selectively for critical parts of an application, and how to incorporate them effectively into existing deveopmental practices. The text is extensively illustrated, both with tutorial and self-assessment excercises and with examples of industrial applications from the reactive systems domain. This book will be of interest to academic and industrial researchers, software engineering practitioners and consultants, and will also provide invaluable reading material for students learning Z++ and VDM++.

Book Synopsis Domain Modeling-Based Software Engineering by : Ruqian Lu
Download or read book Domain Modeling-Based Software Engineering written by Ruqian Lu. This book was released on 2012-12-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many approaches have been proposed to enhance software productivity and reliability. These approaches typically fall into three categories: the engineering approach, the formal approach, and the knowledge-based approach. The optimal gain in software productivity cannot be obtained if one relies on only one of these approaches. Thus, the integration of different approaches has also become a major area of research. No approach can be said to be perfect if it fails to satisfy the following two criteria. Firstly, a good approach should support the full life cycle of software development. Secondly, a good approach should support the development of large-scale software for real use in many application domains. Such an approach can be referred to as a five-in-one approach. The authors of this book have, for the past eight years, conducted research in knowledge-based software engineering, of which the final goal is to develop a paradigm for software engineering which not only integrates the three approaches mentioned above, but also fulfils the two criteria on which the five-in-one approach is based. Domain Modeling- Based Software Engineering: A Formal Approach explores the results of this research. Domain Modeling-Based Software Engineering: A Formal Approach will be useful to researchers of knowledge-based software engineering, students and instructors of computer science, and software engineers who are working on large-scale projects of software development and want to use knowledge-based development methods in their work.

Book Synopsis Formal Methods and Object Technology by : Stephen J. Goldsack
Download or read book Formal Methods and Object Technology written by Stephen J. Goldsack. This book was released on 2012-12-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rationale Software engineering aims to develop software by using approaches which en able large and complex program suites to be developed in a systematic way. However, it is well known that it is difficult to obtain the level of assurance of correctness required for safety critical software using old fashioned program ming techniques. The level of safety required becomes particularly high in software which is to function without a break for long periods of time, since the software cannot be restarted and errors can accumulate. Consequently programming for mission critical systems, for example, needs to address the requirements of correctness with particular care. In the search for techniques for making software cheaper and more reliable, two important but largely independent influences have been visible in recent years. These are: • Object Technology • Formal Methods First, it has become evident that objects are, and will remain an important concept in software. Experimental languages of the 1970's introduced various concepts of package, cluster, module, etc. giving concrete expression to the importance of modularity and encapsulation, the construction of software com ponents hiding their state representations and algorithmic mechanisms from users, exporting only those features (mainly the procedure calling mechanisms) which were needed in order to use the objects. This gives the software com ponents a level of abstraction, separating the view of what a module does for the system from the details of how it does them.

Book Synopsis Objects and Systems by : Bernard P. Zeigler
Download or read book Objects and Systems written by Bernard P. Zeigler. This book was released on 2012-10-04. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author's aim in this textbook is to provide students with a clear understanding of the relationship between the principles of object-oriented programming and software engineering. Professor Zeigler takes an approach based on state representation to formal specification. Consequently, this book is unique through its - emphasis on formulating primitives from which all other functionality can be built; - integral use of a semi-formal behaviour specification language based on state transition concepts; -differentiation between behaviour and implementation; -a reusable heterogeneous container class library; -ability to show the elegance and power of ensemble methods with non-trivial examples. As a result, students studying software engineering will find this a distinctive and valuable approach to programming and systems engineering.
