Using detailed case studies to show the object-oriented approach to software engineering, Object-Oriented and Classical Software Engineering, Eighth Edition presents an excellent introduction to software engineering fundamentals. The book covers both traditional and object-oriented techniques. While maintaining a unique organization with Part I covering the underlying software engineering theory, and Part II presenting the more practical software life cycle, the eighth edition includes significant revisions to problems, new content, as well as a new chapter to enable instructors to better utilize the book in a one-semester course. Complementing this well-balanced approach is the straightforward, student-friendly writing style, through which difficult concepts are presented in a clear, understandable manner. The website accompanying the text features complete Java and C++ implementations of the MSG Foundation case study, developed using the Unified Process. The site also includes lecture PowerPointides, an image library, and an instructor's solutions manual. --Book Jacket.
