Synopsis

Frameworks are skeletal or generic applications which can be fleshed out and customised into fully-fledged software programs. A mature framework saves a business many thousands of dollars in software development costs and can be re-used indefinitely. Corporations have paid as much as $8 million to develop proprietary frameworks, but frameworks - like patterns - are inherently open. They are the result of distilling industry-wide practice and experience, which is what makes them so hard to build Some frameworks are specific to languages, others to programming methods or particular kinds of data, and still others to industry domains. For instance, a chemical processing framework will look quite different from a telecommunications framework. This book covers domain frameworks in real world industries, and some of the biggest framework projects outside the research labs. Each chapter is built around an actual report from the implementation of a framework development or customization project, and there are approximately 30 such examples. The book is intended to document lessons learned and provide code for further research, with all examples described in detail and their designs explained in terms of application domains.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Object Technology An invaluable collection of domain–specific frameworks Domain–Specific Application Frameworks Frameworks provide generic software architectures that can be reused, indefinitely, to generate new applications. But they don′t readily translate from one business or industry domain to another. A telecommunications framework looks very different from a currency trading framework, for instance. Developers need instruction on how to build frameworks specific to the domains for which they program. Now, this book/CD–ROM package gives developers models–and much more. Each chapter is built around a case study reporting a major framework implementation or customization project. The 30 examples contained in the book cover an array of application domains, including:
∗ Flexible manufacturing architectures
∗ Computer–integrated manufacturing
∗ New generation control systems
∗ Concurrent engineering
∗ Reliable distributed computing
∗ High–performance Web servers
∗ Multimedia telecommunications
∗ Networking and telecommunications
∗ Industrial visualization
∗ And many others
The enclosed CD–ROM gives you:
∗ Example frameworks
∗ Documentation and manuals
∗ Framework code and implementation tips
∗ Sample framework architectures and models
∗ Design patterns and presentations
∗ Animated demonstrations
