A comprehensive reference for an executable UML and the advantages of modeling This book presents the most up-to-date technology for rapidly developing information systems using the object-oriented paradigm and models, and establishes an executable profile of UML for such model-driven development. As a software developer, architect, or analyst, you'll benefit from learning how information systems can be developed more efficiently using the object-oriented paradigm and model-driven approach. Written by an expert who is uniquely qualified in the topic, this Wrox reference offers a profile of UML that is formal and executable, instead of the relational paradigm or its incomplete coupling with object orientation. It provides a comprehensive tutorial on model-driven development and UML.

Provides an in-depth tutorial on using model-driven development and UML for building information systems, with extensive examples

Includes tutorials and critics of traditional IS modeling paradigms, such as the relational paradigm, entity-relationship modeling, and the widely used incomplete coupling of object orientation with relational databases

Covers basic object-oriented concepts with UML semantics, like classes and data types, attributes, associations, generalizations, operations and methods

Proposes new powerful concepts for rapid development of information systems including contemporary user interfaces, such as programming by demonstration and others

Model-Driven Development with Executable UML offers a thorough education in this complex topic.
