Object-oriented methods and the automated tools and languages that support these methods are rapidly replacing structured methods, CASE tools, information engineering, and RAD approaches to improving software development productivity. How-to in approach, this book provides a guide for understanding and practicing one of the new development paradigms -- the object-oriented rapid prototyper -- that can produce high-quality, clearly-documented, easily-maintainable software that provides the highest possible user satisfaction with minimum total effort. Provides a fast-track explanation of what rapid prototyping really is (as opposed to the folklore of rapid prototyping); features a three-chapter, step-by-step tutorial that provides directions for developing, iterating, refining, and evolving a prototype into a deliverable software application; considers the application of the methods to the actual development of real projects. For programmers interested in object-oriented methods.
