Building Business Objects. With Cd-Rom, Edition En Anglais - Couverture souple

A complete guide to the analysis, design, construction, deployment, and reuse of business objects for your organization.

Business objects are fully interoperable, plug–and–play, distributed components that provide a natural way to depict the things you use in your everyday business processes. With them, you can "evolve" business applications incrementally to fit changing organizational needs, rapidly build new applications entirely from reusable components, and dramatically reduce your development and maintenance costs. Now find out how to put business objects to work for your organization in Building Business Objects.

Written by participating members of the OMG′s Business Object Domain Task Force, Building Business Objects reviews the theory behind business objects and business components, and explains how a Business Object Facility (BOF) can augment ORBs such as CORBA and DCOM. The authors then discuss future directions for business–object technology including standards and integration with Java and other Web technologies. Finally, they provide proven techniques for each stage of the business–object development process with numerous real–world examples. Using UML 1.1 throughout, you learn how to:
∗ Analyze the business domain
∗ Apply proven design patterns
∗ Build and utilize your own business objects.

The CD–ROM supplies you with:
∗ The "BOF Lite" Business Object Facility software
∗ A library of sample business objects
∗ The tools to build and use your own simple business objects
∗ A tutorial in which you construct real business applications.
