Object-Oriented Software Engineering, written by Bernd Bruegge and Allen H. Dutoit, is a complete reference textbook with elaborate introductions and descriptions to the basic concepts of object oriented software engineering. Summary Of The Book Object Oriented Software Engineering is a pragmatic software design methodology applied in programming that is based on object oriented techniques. The concept of Object-Oriented Software Engineering (OOSE) was initially formulated by the prolific Swedish computer scientist, Ivar Jacobson, while he was working for the Objectory AB, in the year 1992. Object-Oriented Software Engineering is a practical guidebook of the various concepts related to the pragmatic usage of Object-Oriented Software Engineering tools and techniques for computer programming. This book is divided carefully into three parts, namely an introduction to software engineering, managing changes along with software life cycle, and dealing with complexities that are related to object oriented programming. There are sixteen chapters under the three parts of this book that deals with various concepts of object oriented programming that uses UML, Patterns, and JAVA methodologies for programming. The various concepts covered in the respective chapters of this book are about the fundamentals of software engineering and its concepts, development and management of activities in the field of software engineering, an exhaustive introduction to the usage of UML using statechart, class, case, activity diagrams, organization of unplanned and planned practical projects, system designing and the various concepts related to it, including planning and analysis of object oriented programming and many more. To help the programmers as well as the students of software engineering, every chapter of this book consists of suggestions for further readings, case studies for practical implementation and exercises with questions related to the topics discussed in the respective chapters.
