Overview:  This text will be the first to present an object-oriented methodology from the outset for beginning Systems Analysis and Design students.  It is the first book to introduce object-oriented methods without relying on classical methods to introduce key concepts or without requiring students to know Java or C++.  It will presume no knowledge whatsoever about process modeling or data modeling.  The widely used UML notation (unified modeling language) will be used throughout the book for all diagrams and model renderings. The key benefit to this approach is that it makes the course easier to teach and learn since many students come to this course with limited backgrounds having only taken one introductory MIS course. Also, this approach is appealing because object-oriented methodology is widely used in industry.

This text provides an introduction to the process of software engineering. The Universal Modeling Language (UML) has become an industry standard and now permeates this first edition. In this text, it is used for object-oriented analysis and design as well as when diagrams depict objects and their interrelationships. Design patterns, frameworks and software architecture have also become a popular topic in the field of software engineering and are part of a chapter on reuse, portability, and inoperability. The inoperabilty material includes sections on such hot topics as OLE, COM, and CORBA (you'll want to mention that this material is covered). THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SCHACH C++ AND JAVA BOOKS. These two books are completely identical in topic coverage, organization, and pedagogy. Even the pagingation of the two books is the same. While there is minimal computer code in either book, the difference is that where there is code, it is in C++ in one book and Java in the other. It is important to note that software engineering is independent of any specific programming language and your software engineering professors will likely emphasize this with you. But a specific language needs to be used to give examples and implement case studies -- these are done in C++ in one version and Java in the other.

Building on seven strong editions, the eighth edition maintains the organization and approach for which Object-Oriented and Classical Software Engineering is known while making significant improvements and additions to content as well as problems and projects. The revisions for the eighth edition make the text easier to use in a one-semester course. Integrating case studies to show the object oriented approach to software engineering, Object-Oriented and Classical Software Engineering, 8/e presents an excellent introduction to software engineering fundamentals, covering both traditional and object-oriented techniques. While maintaining a unique organization with Part I covering underlying software engineering theory, and Part II presenting the more practical life cycle, the eighth edition includes significant revision to problems, new content, as well as a new chapter to enable instructors to better-utilize the book in a one-semester course. Complementing this well-balanced approach is the straightforward, student-friendly writing style, through which difficult concepts are presented in a clear, understandable manner.

Classical and Object-Oriented Software Engineering, 5/e is designed for an introductory software engineering course. This book provides an excellent introduction to software engineering fundamentals, covering both traditional and object-oriented techniques. Schach's unique organization and style makes it excellent for use in a classroom setting. It presents the underlying software engineering theory in Part I and follows it up with the more practical life-cycle material in Part II. Many software engineering books are more like reference books, which do not provide the appropriate fundamentals before inundating students with implementation details. 
In this edition, more practical material has been added to help students understand how to use what they are learning. This has been done through the use of "How To" boxes and greater implementation detail in the case study. Additionally, the new edition contains the references to the most current literature and includes an overview of extreme programmming. 
The website in this edition will be more extensive. It will include Solutions, PowerPoints that incorporate lecture notes, newly developed self-quiz questions, and source code for the term project and case study.

Classical and Object-Oriented Software Engineering, 6/e is designed for an introductory software engineering course. This book provides an excellent introduction to software engineering fundamentals, covering both traditional and object-oriented techniques. Schach's unique organization and style makes it excellent for use in a classroom setting. It presents the underlying software engineering theory in Part I and follows it up with the more practical life-cycle material in Part II. A running case study through the second half of the book helps students apply software engineering principles to a real project. 
The book has been updated to use the Unified Process model throughout, making the text more practical and modern. The material has also been revised to conform to the latest ISO/IEC 12207 standards. Additionally, the references and examples have been thoroughly updated to appeal to today's student. 
This book is accompanied by a website, which will include Solutions, PowerPoints that incorporate lecture notes, self-quiz questions, and source code for the term project and case study.

Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design is the first book to introduce object-oriented methods without either requiring students to know Java or C++ or relying on classical methods to introduce key concepts. It focuses strictly on an objectoriented approach--instead of a hybrid--to view all phases of the Systems Development Life Cycle.

The second edition of Software Engineering is a broad-based yet detailed text that stresses and carefully considers each phase of the software engineering process. It provides excellent examples, outstanding illustrations, and an extensive list of current references. Modern topics are covered, including the object-oriented approach, the Spiral Model, and the Capability Maturity Model (CMM). The text emphasizes the importance of maintenance, testing, documentation, reuse, analysis and comparison of competing techniques, and how the results of experiments in software engineering can assist in selecting appropriate techniques. Largely language-independent, the book makes use of C/C++ where appropriate. Extensive problem sets and a classroom-tested practical software term project are also featured. An instructor's manual that contains solutions to every problem in the text (including the term project), teaching hints for using the book, and transparency masters for all figures.
