Gerald Kristen (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 1994 | ISBN-10: 0201422999 | ISBN-13: 978-0201422993

Object-orientation is a conceptual framework which emerged in the 1980s as a result of the genesis of new computer languages, in particular Smalltalk. Since then it has arguably become the fundamental framework for the evolution of computer languages and software development. In this book, Gerald Kristen takes these fundamental object-oriented ideas and uses them as the basis for a mature object-oriented systems development method---the KISS method---which utilizes a number of completely integrated models and techniques. The ideas of object-orientation are used as a means of gathering information and meaning from everyday language and from this basis a structure and method is provided which can be used to design information systems in an incremental fashion.
