The two previous editions were written as easy-to-read introductions to the UML, and how to apply its notation and semantics to the unique requirements involved with the development of real-time and embedded systems. This third edition is no exception. Although the book's emphasis is on UML, it is also about capturing the requirements, structure, and behavior of real-time systems. The most significant change in this revision will be it's integration throughout the book of UML 2.0, and all indications are that UML 2.0 is even more accepting of the unique aspects of real-time and embedded systems development.

Introduces embedded system practitioners to basic object technology concepts and the latest version of the industry-standard UML.

  • Fully revised and updated, current with UML 2.0.
  • The best instruction for applying traditional software methods to the intricacies of real-time programming.
  • Retains author's signature teaching style and incorporates feedback from the first two editions.

Bruce Powel Douglass is the Chief Evangelist for i-Logix, a leading producer of tools for real-time systems development. He contributed to the original specification of the UML and to the UML 2.0 as one of the co-chairs of the Object Management Group’s Real-Time Analysis and Design Working Group. Bruce consults for a number of companies and organizations, including NASA, on building large-scale, real-time, safety-critical systems. He is the author of seven other books, including Real-Time Design Patterns (Addison-Wesley, 2003) and Doing Hard Time (Addison-Wesley, 1999).



Praise for Real Time UML, Third Edition

“I found Real Time UML, Third Edition to provide an informative and practical application of UML 2.0 to the development of real-time systems, and well worth the read by systems and software engineers. It is written in plain English and provides the right balance of depth and breadth.”

         —Sanford Friedenthal
             Deputy, Corporate Systems Engineering,
             Lockheed Martin Corporation
             Chair: OMG Systems Engineering
             Domain Special Interest Group

“Douglass has again made highly technical material accessible to everyone. This book is an excellent introduction to the new UML 2.0, and if you want to learn what modeling for real-time environments is like, this is the book to read. His witty, conversational style should be a model for all authors of technical material.”

         —Gary K. Evans
             Founder and Object Evangelist,
             Evanetics, Inc. (www.evanetics.com)

“Douglass has been a co-chair of the OMG’s group interested in quality of service issues and, therefore, has valuable insights into the usefulness of these emerging technologies. His clear presentation of this information helps those applying these advanced technologies to extract the most benefit for their organizations and products, not only for the intended real-time embedded product, but also for products whose quality of performance, while not critical, is nevertheless of interest.”

         —Thérèse M. Smith
             President and CEO,
             Air Traffic Software Architecture, Inc.
             (USA and Canada)

“The author presents an excellent overview of UML in the real-time space with plenty of colorful examples. This book is an excellent teaching tool for a newcomer or a reference for an expert!”

         —Soma Chatterjee
             Senior Product Manager,
             I-Logix

The increasing complexity of embedded and real-time systems requires a more premeditated and sophisticated design approach for successful implementation. The object-based Unified Modeling Language (UML) can describe the structural and behavioral aspects critical to real-time systems and has come to the fore as an outstanding medium for effective design.

Like its best-selling predecessors, Real Time UML, Third Edition, provides an overview of the essentials of real-time systems and an introduction to UML that focuses on the use of the ever-evolving standard in design and development. This accessible book examines requirements analysis, the definition of object structure and behavior, architectural and mechanistic design, and more detailed designs that encompass data structure, operations, and exceptions. Numerous figures help illustrate UML design techniques, and detailed, real-world examples show the application of those techniques to embedded systems.

This significantly revised edition features the new UML 2.0 standard, which dramatically improves the clarity of the UML for capturing architectures and improving its scalability. Real Time UML, Third Edition, also introduces the UML Profile for Schedulability, Performance, and Time (STP Profile). The STP Profile provides a standardized way to capture schedulability and performance constraints of systems. This allows analysis tools to read and analyze UML models.

Key topic coverage includes:

  • The Rapid Object-Oriented Process for Embedded Systems (ROPES)
  • Concurrency and resource modeling with the Real-Time (SPT) UML Profile
  • Tapping action semantics for greater executability
  • Scenario modeling with timing diagrams
  • Key strategies for object identification
  • Defining object state behavior
  • Representing and identifying threads
  • Mechanistic design patterns
  • Representing Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) Architectures with the UML

    • Aspect-oriented software development is emerging as a proven approach for

    allowing the separate expression of multiple concerns, along with "weaving"

    technologies for knitting together these separate expressions into coherent

    systems. In other words, it offers great promise as an approach to simplifying

    the development of complex modern software systems. Many expert observers

    view AOSD as a worthwhile successor to the popular object-oriented paradigm

    that is prevalent in contemporary software engineering. In this new book,

    AOSD experts Clarke and Baniassad apply proven theory to the practical realm

    of real-world development. The result is an applicable and easy-to-digest

    methodology for simplifying and optimizing the development of thoroughly

    modern software systems.

    • Aspect orientation promises to be the next big wave in software engineering,

    following on the heels of the object-oriented paradigm. Proponents tout the

    value of aspect orientation in providing the ability to add extremely useful

    mechanisms such as security, logging, persistence, debugging, tracing,

    distribution, performance monitoring, and exception handling. To state it

    simply, it makes programming and programs more efficient.

    This highly-anticipated new book demonstrates how to apply use cases and

    aspect orientation in building robust and extensible systems. The authors show

    you how to identify, design, implement, test, and refactor use case modules and

    how to extend them. The book also demonstrates how to design use case

    modules with UML including some enhancements made in UML 2.0 to better

    support the modeling of use case modules.

    • In Effective COM, the authors, Don Box, Keith Brown, Tim Ewald, and Chris Sells, offer 50 concrete guidelines for creating COM based applications that are more efficient, robust, and maintainable. Drawn from the authors' extensive practical experience working with and teaching COM, these rules of thumb, pitfalls to avoid, and experience-based pointers will enable you to become a more productive and successful COM programmer.

    These guidelines appear under six major headings: the transition from C++ to COM; interfaces, the fundamental element of COM development; implementation issues; the unique concept of apartments; security; and transactions. Throughout this book, the issues unique to the MTS programming model are addressed in detail.

    Readers will gain a deeper understanding of COM concepts, capabilities, and drawbacks, and the know-how to employ COM effectively for high quality distributed application development. A supporting Web site, including source code, can be found at http://www.develop.com/effectivecom.

    • This book teaches the student how to use objects, frameworks, and UML notation to design, build, and reuse component-based software. Catalysis is a rapidly emerging UML-based method for object- and component-based development. It provides a clear meaning of and systematic uses for the UML notation. "The Catalysis Approach" explains how patterns can be characterized as model frameworks. Through the application of frameworks in requirements, specifications, architectures, and designs, students will find that all models contain recurring patterns of structure, behavior, and refinement. This opens the way to building models and designs rapidly by adapting and composing both generic and domain-specific modeling frameworks.

    • The two previous editions were written as easy-to-read introductions to the UML, and how to apply its notation and semantics to the unique requirements involved with the development of real-time and embedded systems. This third edition is no exception. Although the book's emphasis is on UML, it is also about capturing the requirements, structure, and behavior of real-time systems. The most significant change in this revision will be it's integration throughout the book of UML 2.0, and all indications are that UML 2.0 is even more accepting of the unique aspects of real-time and embedded systems development.

    • Refactoring is about improving the design of existing code. It is the process of changing a software system in such a way that it does not alter the external behavior of the code, yet improves its internal structure. With refactoring you can even take a bad design and rework it into a good one. This book offers a thorough discussion of the principles of refactoring, including where to spot opportunities for refactoring, and how to set up the required tests. There is also a catalog of more than 40 proven refactorings with details as to when and why to use the refactoring, step by step instructions for implementing it, and an example illustrating how it works The book is written using Java as its principle language, but the ideas are applicable to any OO language.

    Brief Description

    • This book provides a clear and provocative discussion of the economics, metrics, and management strategies necessary to plan and execute a software project successfully. Royce discusses, with refreshing candor, some of the fads, follies, and excesses of the software industry, clearly differentiating proven techniques and obsolete methods. Paired with this insightful examination are compelling arguments for new management approaches that are sure to stimulate debate. The relative impacts of these new techniques are quantified through simple economic analyses, common sense, and anecdotal evidence. The resulting framework strikes a pragmatic balance between theory and practice that can be readily applied in today's challenging development environment. An extensive case study analysis of a large-scale, million-line project deployed successfully on schedule and under budget using these methods further illustrates their application.

    • This pragmatic guide introduces UML while leading the student through the process of UML-based database modeling and design. The book presents the different types of UML diagrams, explaining how they apply to the database world, and shows how data modeling with the UML can be tied into the Rational Unified Process.

    UML for Database Design is structured around the database design process: business use case modeling, business object modeling, database requirements definition, analysis and preliminary design, and, finally, detailed design and deployment. For each phase of development the book describes the overall objectives and workflow of that phase, the status of the case study, the relevant UML constructs, and the nuts and bolts of database modeling and design with the UML. Drawing on their extensive industry experience, the authors reveal the trials and tribulations of database development teams, lessons learned, and pointers for success.

    • The latest version of the Unified Modeling Language–UML 2.0–has increased its capabilities as the standard notation for modeling software-intensive systems. Like most standards documents, however, the official UML specification is difficult to read and navigate. In addition, UML 2.0 is far more complex than previous versions, making a thorough reference book more essential than ever.

    In this significantly updated and expanded edition of the definitive reference to the standard, James Rumbaugh, Ivar Jacobson, and Grady Booch–the UML’s creators–clearly and completely describe UML concepts, including major revisions to sequence diagrams, activity models, state machines, components, internal structure of classes and components, and profiles.

    • This landmark book provides a thorough overview of the Unified Process for software development, with a practical focus on modeling using the Unified Modeling Language. The Unified Process goes beyond mere object-oriented analysis and design to spell out a proven family of techniques that supports the complete software development life cycle. The result is a component-based process that is use-case driven, architecture-centric, iterative, and incremental. The Unified Process takes full advantage of the industry-standard Unified Modeling Language. This book demonstrates how the notation and process complement one another, using UML models to illustrate the new process in action. The authors clearly describe the semantics and notation of the different higher-level constructs used in the models. Constructs such as use cases, actors, subsystems, classes, interfaces, active classes, processes, threads, nodes, and most relations are described in the context of a model. Object technology practitioners and software engineers familiar with the authors' past work will appreciate The Unified Software Development Process as a useful means of learning the current best practices in software development.

    • Fully updated and revised, Visual Modeling with Rational Rose 2002 and UML is a comprehensive introduction and tutorial that shows how to use a tool (Rational Rose 2002), a process (the Rational Unified Process), and a language (the UML) to successfully visualize, specify, document, and construct a software system. This timely new edition, written by the UML Evangelist at Rational Software Corporation, breaks the technology down to its essentials and provides clear explanations of each element. The book follows a simplified version of the Rational Unified Process from project inception through system analysis and design. The popular sample case study from the previous editions (a registration system for a fictional university) has been retained and updated, now better illustrating the iterative development process in practice, the UML in action, and the proper application of Rational Rose 2002. Newly updated appendixes demonstrate code generation and reverse engineering using Rational Rose 2002 with the C++, Visual C++, and Visual Basic programming languages. In addition, a handy glossary defines key object technology and software modeling terms.
