Features: This book is aimed at students and developers who wish to master the key skills and techniques for applying UML in software development. Readers will learn to use appropriate UML models, processes, and techniques for object-oriented analysis, design, and implementation. The accompanying CD-ROM is Visual Paradigm for UML (VP-UML) Community Edition, a winning CASE tool that allows readers to quickly translate the theory they have learned into practice. The author proposes a modeling and analysis technique called View Alignment Techniques (VAT), which can help software developers create development methodologies. The book also describes the Activity Analysis Approach (A3), which is particularly suitable for the development of interaction-intensive systems. The book uses three chapters to describe structured modeling and analysis, use case modeling and analysis, and dynamic modeling and analysis, including practical tips and experiences summarized by the author from years of practice. Each chapter has a mini case study that can be used to demonstrate the unique "from diagram to code" concept in software development. In the final chapter, there is a larger case study that helps readers consolidate the theories learned in the previous chapters using VP-UML.
