Book Synopsis Specifying Software by : R. D. Tennent

Download or read book Specifying Software written by R. D. Tennent. This book was released on 2002-02-25. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides an innovative hands-on introduction to techniques for specifying the behaviour of software components. It is primarily intended for use as a text book for a course in the 2nd or 3rd year of Computer Science and Computer Engineering programs, but it is also suitable for self-study. Using this book will help the reader improve programming skills and gain a sound foundation and motivation for subsequent courses in advanced algorithms and data structures, software design, formal methods, compilers, programming languages, and theory. The presentation is based on numerous examples and case studies appropriate to the level of programming expertise of the intended readership. The main topics covered are techniques for using programmer-friendly assertional notations to specify, develop, and verify small but non-trivial algorithms and data representations, and the use of state diagrams, grammars, and regular expressions to specify and develop recognizers for formal languages.

Book Synopsis Software Requirement Patterns by : Stephen Withall

Download or read book Software Requirement Patterns written by Stephen Withall. This book was released on 2007-06-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn proven, real-world techniques for specifying software requirements with this practical reference. It details 30 requirement “patterns” offering realistic examples for situation-specific guidance for building effective software requirements. Each pattern explains what a requirement needs to convey, offers potential questions to ask, points out potential pitfalls, suggests extra requirements, and other advice. This book also provides guidance on how to write other kinds of information that belong in a requirements specification, such as assumptions, a glossary, and document history and references, and how to structure a requirements specification. A disturbing proportion of computer systems are judged to be inadequate; many are not even delivered; more are late or over budget. Studies consistently show one of the single biggest causes is poorly defined requirements: not properly defining what a system is for and what it’s supposed to do. Even a modest contribution to improving requirements offers the prospect of saving businesses part of a large sum of wasted investment. This guide emphasizes this important requirement need—determining what a software system needs to do before spending time on development. Expertly written, this book details solutions that have worked in the past, with guidance for modifying patterns to fit individual needs—giving developers the valuable advice they need for building effective software requirements

Book Synopsis UML Components by : John Cheesman

Download or read book UML Components written by John Cheesman. This book was released on 2001. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UML was conceived and first implemented as a language for describing the design of object-oriented programs. Its widespread adoption and inherent flexibility has, inevitably, led to its use in other areas, including the design of component-based systems, While it is not a perfect fit for component-based development, this book describes how best to use UML 1.3 in the specification and design of medium to large systems that utilize server-side component technologies.
