Learning Domain-Driven Design
Author: Vlad Khononov
Publisher: "O'Reilly Media, Inc."
ISBN: 1098100107
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
Building software is harder than ever. As a developer, you not only have to chase ever-changing technological trends but also need to understand the business domains behind the software. This practical book provides you with a set of core patterns, principles, and practices for analyzing business domains, understanding business strategy, and, most importantly, aligning software design with its business needs. Author Vlad Khononov shows you how these practices lead to robust implementation of business logic and help to future-proof software design and architecture. You'll examine the relationship between domain-driven design (DDD) and other methodologies to ensure you make architectural decisions that meet business requirements. You'll also explore the real-life story of implementing DDD in a startup company. With this book, you'll learn how to: Analyze a company's business domain to learn how the system you're building fits its competitive strategy Use DDD's strategic and tactical tools to architect effective software solutions that address business needs Build a shared understanding of the business domains you encounter Decompose a system into bounded contexts Coordinate the work of multiple teams Gradually introduce DDD to brownfield projects

Design Patterns Explained
Author: Alan Shalloway
Publisher: Pearson Education
ISBN: 0321630041
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 449
Book Description
"One of the great things about the book is the way the authors explain concepts very simply using analogies rather than programming examples–this has been very inspiring for a product I'm working on: an audio-only introduction to OOP and software development." –Bruce Eckel "...I would expect that readers with a basic understanding of object-oriented programming and design would find this book useful, before approaching design patterns completely. Design Patterns Explained complements the existing design patterns texts and may perform a very useful role, fitting between introductory texts such as UML Distilled and the more advanced patterns books." –James Noble Leverage the quality and productivity benefits of patterns–without the complexity! Design Patterns Explained, Second Edition is the field's simplest, clearest, most practical introduction to patterns. Using dozens of updated Java examples, it shows programmers and architects exactly how to use patterns to design, develop, and deliver software far more effectively. You'll start with a complete overview of the fundamental principles of patterns, and the role of object-oriented analysis and design in contemporary software development. Then, using easy-to-understand sample code, Alan Shalloway and James Trott illuminate dozens of today's most useful patterns: their underlying concepts, advantages, tradeoffs, implementation techniques, and pitfalls to avoid. Many patterns are accompanied by UML diagrams. Building on their best-selling First Edition, Shalloway and Trott have thoroughly updated this book to reflect new software design trends, patterns, and implementation techniques. Reflecting extensive reader feedback, they have deepened and clarified coverage throughout, and reorganized content for even greater ease of understanding. New and revamped coverage in this edition includes Better ways to start "thinking in patterns" How design patterns can facilitate agile development using eXtreme Programming and other methods How to use commonality and variability analysis to design application architectures The key role of testing into a patterns-driven development process How to use factories to instantiate and manage objects more effectively The Object-Pool Pattern–a new pattern not identified by the "Gang of Four" New study/practice questions at the end of every chapter Gentle yet thorough, this book assumes no patterns experience whatsoever. It's the ideal "first book" on patterns, and a perfect complement to Gamma's classic Design Patterns. If you're a programmer or architect who wants the clearest possible understanding of design patterns–or if you've struggled to make them work for you–read this book.

Discover Bio-Design Thinking
Author: Dr. Rudy A. Magnan
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1984525573
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
Our minds are organized into a certain mind-set based on our perception of the reality we develop in our socialization into society. I believe that because we are living and operating a new creative paradigm filled with new ideas, concepts, and laws, we must begin to challenge our existing mind-set and seek creative concepts and methods that will allow us to see this new alternative reality that many refuse to recognize and accept. We can look at nature as a composite of isolated snapshots showing its beauty, or we can view the incredible and intelligent design and function behind every plant, tree, and living creature. The intended goal of the book is to provoke your mind to see this incredible bio design from which we can begin to develop a higher level of understanding and meaning. We will soon realize that we will discover and recognize new patterns as we process new information. We will begin to connect ideas and concepts previously not connected. We will raise the quality of our perceptions and thinking using the intelligent design found in nature.
