Catalysis is an emerging UML-based method for component and framework-based development. This text shows how to find and use recurring pattens in the UML using the Catalysis Method. It identifies patterns in software design and notation using UML.
This book teaches the student how to use objects, frameworks, and UML notation to design, build, and reuse component-based software. Catalysis is a rapidly emerging UML-based method for object- and component-based development. It provides a clear meaning of and systematic uses for the UML notation. "The Catalysis Approach" explains how patterns can be characterized as model frameworks. Through the application of frameworks in requirements, specifications, architectures, and designs, students will find that all models contain recurring patterns of structure, behavior, and refinement. This opens the way to building models and designs rapidly by adapting and composing both generic and domain-specific modeling frameworks.

Desmond D'Souza is senior vice president of component-based development at Platinum Technologyis ICON Computing Lab, working on tools and methods for effective software engineering. Since 1985 he has helped model and build systems in finance, systems management, CAD, and telecommunications, and is a frequent speaker at conferences and companies worldwide. Alan Cameron Wills is technical director of TriReme International Ltd., consulting and training clients in many fields including banking, telecommunications, and manufacturing. Dr. Wills has worked on methods and tools since 1982, and specializes in making frontline research practical and available for main-stream software engineering. 0201310120AB04062001
