Description: In application development, fads come and go. Tools may change. Programming languages may go out of favor. But the foundation of object design and architecture and the art of applying it -- once learned -- will remain sound for a long time. This language-independent book systematically presents the basic concepts of objects, and helps readers gain a fuller understanding of how to use design patterns to find design solutions. The book ties the proven foundations of object technology with the latest trends and forward thinking topics -- important terms such as UML, XML, patterns, and web applications. A wide range of real-world case studies shed light on the key concepts of the book and their practical application.
