"Software System Development: A gentle introduction". The approach is similar to that of the previous title and aims to be clear and practical. The book follows the software development process, from requirements capture to implementation, using an object-oriented approach. It takes a practical viewpoint on developing software using object-oriented techniques, providing the reader with a basic understanding of object-oriented concepts. It outlines standard modelling techniques and illustrates them with a variety of examples, exercises and case studies, using Java as the language of implementation.
