Product Description
Product Description
"This book manages to convey the practical use of UML 2 in clear and understandable terms with many examples and guidelines. Even for people not working with the Unified Process, the book is still of great use. UML 2 and the Unified Process, Second Edition is a must-read for every UML 2 beginner and a helpful guide and reference for the experienced practitioner."
--Roland Leibundgut, Technical Director, Zuehlke Engineering Ltd.
"This book is a good starting point for organizations and individuals who are adopting UP and need to understand how to provide visualization of the different aspects needed to satisfy it. "
--Eric Naiburg, Market Manager, Desktop Products, IBM Rational Software
This thoroughly revised edition provides an indispensable and practical guide to the complex process of object-oriented analysis and design using UML 2. It describes how the process of OO analysis and design fits into the software development lifecycle as defined by the Unified Process (UP).
UML 2 and the Unified Process contains a wealth of practical, powerful, and useful techniques that you can apply immediately. As you progress through the text, you will learn OO analysis and design techniques, UML syntax and semantics, and the relevant aspects of the UP. The book provides you with an accurate and succinct summary of both UML and UP from the point of view of the OO analyst and designer.
This book provides
- Chapter roadmaps, detailed diagrams, and margin notes allowing you to focus on your needs
- Outline summaries for each chapter, making it ideal for revision, and a comprehensive index that can be used as a reference
New to this edition:
- Completely revised and updated for UML 2 syntax
- Easy to understand explanations of the new UML 2 semantics
- More real-world examples
- A new section on the Object Constraint Language (OCL)
- Introductory material on the OMG's Model Driven Architecture (MDA)
The accompanying website provides
- A complete example of a simple e-commerce system
- Open source tools for requirements engineering and use case modeling
- Industrial-strength UML course materials based on the book

I think its one of the best UML books I've ever read (and I've read about 20), and indeed one of the best books on analysis I've ever read. What I really like about it is that there are lots and lots of example models, so you're left in no doubt about what the message is and you get to see lots of ways of modelling scenarios.
I will definitely be reading their next book.
I'm a veteran design engineer. This one is staying on my book-shelf.
As you might expect, there are numerous examples in UML. Which, to many readers, might be more understandable than a mere abstract diagram. But the book is more than just about explaining the UML semantics. It also goes into the Unified Process for running a project, and how this can be documented in UML. By doing so, the authors hope to better enable an understanding of both.
There is also something else, related to the above, but sufficiently different and important to warrant notice. If you write in any object oriented language, it requires certain skills in designing classes and how they interact. Part 4 of the book concerns these issues, which it discusses under the rubric of "Design". A good explanation of the basic concepts. Like inheritance versus aggregation, or inheritance versus interfaces. Or why the lack of multiple inheritance in a language like C# or Java is not necessarily a deficiency.
I think that both books are must for UML beginners and reference for the UML professionals.
In "UML 2 and the Unified Process.." authors show UML in action within the Unified Process, a framework for software development. The book describes how to analyze and design a software by giving a real example. Given examples are also complete and available online.
The language of the book is simple (easy to understand) and its contents is organized very well.
This book gave me an insight about the UML and also introduced me to the Unified Process. I would recommend it with 5+ stars to everybody.
Listmania!
