Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture For Dummies

Implement programming best practices from the ground up

Imagine how much easier it would be to solve a programming problem, if you had access to the best practices from all the top experts in the field, and you could follow the best design patterns that have evolved through the years. Well, now you can. This unique book offers development solutions ranging from high-level architectural patterns, to design patterns that apply to specific problems encountered after the overall structure has been designed, to idioms in specific programming languages--all in one, accessible, guide. Not only will you improve your understanding of software design, you'll also improve the programs you create and successfully take your development ideas to the next level.
* Pulls together the best design patterns and best practices for software design into one accessible guide to help you improve your programming projects
* Helps you avoid re-creating the wheel and also meet the ever-increasing pace of rev cycles, as well as the ever-increasing number of new platforms and technologies for mobile, web, and enterprise computing
* Fills a gap in the entry-level POSA market, as well as a need for guidance in implementing best practices from the ground up

Save time and avoid headaches with your software development projects with Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture For Dummies.

Imagine having a software development problem to solve and being able to turn to the best practices evolved over years of work by all the top experts in the field. This is exactly what Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture For Dummies gives you, including solutions ranging from high-level architectural patterns, through design patterns that apply to specific programming problems encountered after the overall structure of a system has been designed, down to idioms in specific programming languages. Software patterns and software architecture have often been considered high-end, inaccessible concepts. Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture For Dummies brings these concepts down to earth, providing you with a straight forward approach to software architecture and software patterns that will help you incorporate these best practices into your own development efforts in a way that improves your understanding of software design-and the programs you create. This book is a superset of the typical design patterns books, going beyond the 23 Design Patterns. In this book you'll find an overview of software architecture and software patterns, and how you can put them to work for you. You will also find an overview of the various pattern systems, categorizing and grouping patterns into useful criteria that help you decide which ones to use in different situations. Finally, you will learn practical ways to apply pattern-oriented software architecture to your own software design and development projects.
