Software Development, Design, and Coding (eBook, PDF)

With Patterns, Debugging, Unit Testing, and Refactoring

Beschreibung

Learn the principles of good software design and then turn those principles into great code. This book introduces you to software engineering, from the application of engineering principles to the development of software. You'll see how to run a software development project, examine the different phases of a project, and learn how to design and implement programs that solve specific problems.

This book is also about code construction - how to write great programs and make them work. Whether you're new to programming or have written hundreds of applications, in this book you'll re-examine what you already do, and you'll investigate ways to improve. Using examples in the Java and C programming languages, you'll look deeply into coding standards, debugging, unit testing, modularity, and other characteristics of effective programs.

This new third edition incorporates new content, new figures, clarifying revisions, and content reorganization across all chapters. The Software Development Approaches chapter has been updated to highlight the differences between lean and agile general approaches, their various specific implementations, and how they can be effectively combined in software development practices. The Project Management Essentials chapter has been expanded to incorporate "SoftAware Development": a new paradigm which centers individuals, interpersonal relationships, and workplace culture as the heart of healthy and sustainable joint creation of software. Finally, a brand new chapter on intellectual property discusses copyright, patents, and how joint work affects code ownership rights.

Autor

John F. Dooley is the William and Marilyn Ingersoll Professor Emeritus of Computer Science at Knox College in Galesburg, Illinois. Before returning to teaching in 2001, Professor Dooley spent more than 16 years in the software industry as a developer, designer, and manager working for companies such as Bell Telephone Laboratories, McDonnell Douglas, IBM, and Motorola, along with an obligatory stint as head of development at a software startup. He has written more than two dozen professional journal and conference publications and seven books to his credit, along with numerous presentations. He has been a reviewer for the Association for Computing Machinery Special Interest Group on Computer Science Education (SIGCSE) Technical Symposium for the last 36 years and reviews papers for the IEEE Transactions on Education, the journal Cryptologia, and other professional conferences. He has created short courses in software development and three separate Software Engineering courses at the advanced undergraduate level.

Dr. Vera A. Kazakova is a Computer Science educator and researcher, with expertise in artificial intelligence, experiential learning, and collaborative methodologies. With a PhD in AI focused on nature-inspired computation and emergent division of labor, her research spans CS Education, Evolutionary Computation, Narrative Generation, Decentralized Multi-Agent Systems, and Cyber Social Science. Dr. Kazakova also has extensive experience as a CS educator, having taught programming, artificial intelligence, research, and software development courses. Dr. Kazakova has coined the term "Soft-Aware Development" to encapsulate a holistic approach for building software, building stakeholder relationships, and building up each developer along the way. An ardent proponent of experiential learning and agile methodologies, Dr. Kazakova champions a multi-sprint learning architecture that enables students to adapt and iterate, fostering a shared environment of continuous growth. Her passion for collaboration, from simplistic autonomous agents to human developers, and members of large online communities, sets her apart as an advocate for a more interconnected, empathetic, and empowering approach to CS research, education, and software development.
