User-Developer Cooperation in Software Development: Building Common Ground and Usable Systems
ISBN: 9781852333119 / Angielski / Twarda / 317 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The topic of the research reported here is direct user participation in the task-based development of interactive software systems. Building usable software demands understanding and supporting users and their tasks. Users are a primary source of usability requirements and knowledge, since users can be expected to have intimate and extensive knowledge of themselves, their tasks and their working environment. Task analysis approaches to software development encourage a focus on supporting users and their tasks while participatory design approaches encourage users' direct, active contributions...

Specification Case Studies in Raise
ISBN: 9781852333591 / Angielski / Miękka / 405 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume presents twelve case studies that use RAISE - Rigorous Approach to Industrial Software Engineering - to construct, analyse, develop and apply formal specifications. The case studies cover a wide range of application areas including government finance, case-based reasoning, multi-language text processing, object-oriented design patterns, component-based software design and natural resource management. By illustrating the variety of uses of formal specifications, the case studies also raise questions about the creation, purpose and scope of formal models before they are built....

Practical Software Reuse
ISBN: 9781852335021 / Angielski / Miękka / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Right context, software reuse promises high value to businesses that develop software, opening the door to radical improvements in their software capability (productivity, cost, time to market). Attempts to adopt reuse without a sound understanding of the range of issues involved, however, can lead to expensive failure. This book is for those who are wondering whether they should adopt reuse and how, and also to those who have already started to adopt it but are wondering where they may be going wrong and how they could do better. It consistently emphasizes the practical issues that influence...

Software Architectures: Advances and Applications
ISBN: 9781852336363 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We have recently seen a renewal of interest in the field of software architectures. This has happened within the object-oriented community - with the emergenceofframe works and patterns- but also within a wider context of software engineering- with the concepts of components and component-based development. Work is now pro ceeding apace with new developments coming very rapidly. In such an environment it is easy to lose some important ideas; the need for a reflective view on what will be the lasting developments led us to organise a two day seminar in the Open University as a checkpoint in...

Constructing Correct Software
ISBN: 9781852338206 / Angielski / Miękka / 509 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Central to Formal Methods is the so-called Correctness Theorem which relates a specification to its correct Implementations. This theorem is the goal of traditional program testing and, more recently, of program verification (in which the theorem must be proved). Proofs are difficult, though even with the use of powerful theorem provers. This volume explains and illustrates an alternative method, which allows the construction of (necessarily correct) algorithms from a specification using algebraic transformations and refinement techniques which prevent the introduction of errors. Based on... Central to Formal Methods is the so-called Correctness Theorem which relates a specification to its correct Implementations. This theorem is the go... |

Validated Designs for Object-Oriented Systems
ISBN: 9781852338817 / Angielski / Twarda / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Object-oriented design methods are commonplace in computing systems development, but are often dismissed as 'boxes & arrows'. If systems developers are to gain full advantage from such methods, they should be able to achieve designs that are not merely the subject of heated argument, but can be improved by careful, rigorous & machine-supported analysis. This book describes an object-oriented design approach that combines the benefits of abstract modelling with the analytic power of formal methods, to give designs that can be rigorously validated & assured with automated support. ...Object-oriented design methods are commonplace in computing systems development, but are often dismissed as 'boxes & arrows'.

However, they are more common when manmade artefacts are cons- ered. In particular, computer systems are often developed from a sequential perspective. Why is this? The simple reason is that it is easier for us to think about sequential, rather than concurrent, systems. Thus, we use sequentiality as a device...

Metrics for Software Conceptual Models
ISBN: 9781860944970 / Angielski / Twarda / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The idea that “measuring quality is the key to developing high-quality software systems” is gaining relevance. Moreover, it is widely recognised that the key to obtaining better software systems is to measure the quality characteristics of early artefacts, produced at the conceptual modelling phase. Therefore, improving the quality of conceptual models is a major step towards the improvement of software system development.Since the 1970s, software engineers had been proposing high quantities of metrics for software products, processes and resources but had not been paying any...

Doing Web Development: Client Side Techniques
ISBN: 9781893115873 / Angielski / Miękka / 478 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. New technologies such as Microsoft .NET are moving more and more traditional programmers into the world of Web application development, but most of the tools and books on Web development intended for programmers focus on server side development and neglect the critical client side.
