Focusing on dimensional analysis, this monograph offers a comprehensive exploration of its fundamentals, including the Buckingham theorem and unit systems. It features numerous examples across various engineering applications, enhancing understanding through practical illustrations. Additionally, the book presents model theory and similarity solutions, making it a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners. It is also suitable as a university-level textbook, catering to those seeking to deepen their knowledge in this essential area of engineering.
Focusing on real-world systems, the book addresses complex issues like concurrency and real-time constraints. It offers a well-structured approach that caters to all software engineers, providing detailed guidelines that set it apart from other object-oriented texts.
This book covers all you need to know to model and design software applications from use cases to software architectures in UML and shows how to apply the COMET UML-based modeling and design method to real-world problems. The author describes architectural patterns for various architectures, such as broker, discovery, and transaction patterns for service-oriented architectures, and addresses software quality attributes including maintainability, modifiability, testability, traceability, scalability, reusability, performance, availability, and security. Complete case studies illustrate design issues for different software architectures: a banking system for client/server architecture, an online shopping system for service-oriented architecture, an emergency monitoring system for component-based software architecture, and an automated guided vehicle for real-time software architecture. Organized as an introduction followed by several short, self-contained chapters, the book is perfect for senior undergraduate or graduate courses in software engineering and design, and for experienced software engineers wanting a quick reference at each stage of the analysis, design, and development of large-scale software systems.
