The ultimate goal is to understand the effects of evolution of trading strategies on
different agent behavior, as well as the market architecture. The market structure
consists of several major parts: agent types, agent trading rules, securities, price
formation, and evolution. Security: The security structure of the market is relatively
simple since the focus is on investor behavior under changing market outcomes.
Therefore, there is only one stock for trading and this stock does not pay a ...

UML Database Modeling Workbook

With our appetites for data on the rise, it has become more important than ever to use UML (Unified Modeling Language) to capture and precisely represent all of these data requirements. Learn how to construct UML data models by working through a series of exercises and self-assessment tests. Beginners can learn the UML directly. Experienced modelers can leverage their understanding of existing database notations, as the book extensively compares the UML to traditional data modeling (Information Engineering). 1. Discover a new way of representing data requirements and communicating better with your business customers. 2. Understand what UML constructs mean and how to properly use them. 3. Learn subtleties of the UML. Become a power UML developer. 4. Practice constructing data models with the exercises. The back of the book answers every exercise. 5. Assess your mastery of the material. Each part has a multiple-choice test that can quantify your understanding. 6. Improve your ability to abstract – think about different ways of representation – as you construct data models. 7. Measure the quality of your data models. 8. Be able to create database designs (DDL code) starting from a UML data model. 9. Be able to write SQL database queries using a data model as a blueprint. 10. Know the differences among operational models, data warehouse models, enterprise models, and master models. They are all aspects of data modeling. This book is concise and to the point. You will learn by induction through reading, practice, and feedback.

UML 2002 - The Unified Modeling Language. Model Engineering, Concepts, and Tools

5th International Conference, Dresden, Germany, September 30 October 4, 2002. Proceedings

Five years on from its adoption in 1997 by the Object Management Group (OMG), the Uni?ed Modeling Language is the de facto standard for creating - agrammatic models of software systems. More than 100 books have been written about UML, and it is taught to students throughout the world. The de?nition of UML version 2 is well under way, and should be largely completed within the year. This will not only improve and enhance UML itself, including standard facilities for diagram interchange, but also make it fully integrated with other modeling technologies from the OMG, such as Meta-Object Facility (MOF) and XML Metadata Interchange (XMI). The Object Constraint Language, which has become an important vehicle for communicating detailed insights between UML researchers and practitioners, will have a much expanded speci?cation and be better integrated with the UML. The popularity of UML signi?es the possibility of a shift of immense prop- tions in the practice of software development, at least comparable to the shift from the use of assembly language to “third-generation” or “high-level” p- gramming languages. We dream of describing the behavior of software systems in terms of models, closely related to the needs of the enterprise being served, and being able to routinely translate these models automatically into executing p- grams on distributed computing systems. The OMG is promoting Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) as a signi?cant step towards this vision, and the MDA c- cept has received considerable support within the IT industry.

Object-Oriented Analysis and Design Using UML

An Introduction to Unified Process and Design Patterns

A modern computer program, such as the one that controls a rocket’s journey to moon, is like a medieval cathedral—vast, complex, layered with circuits and mazes. To write such a program, which probably runs into a hundred thousand lines or more, knowledge of an object-oriented language like Java or C++ is not enough. Unified Modelling Language (UML), elaborated in detail in this book, is a methodology that assists in the design of software systems. The first task in the making of a software product is to gather requirements from the client. This well-organized and clearly presented text develops a formal method to write down these requirements as Use Cases in UML. Besides, it also develops the concepts of static and dynamic modelling and the Unified Process that suggests incremental and iterative development of software, taking client feedback at every step. The concept of Design Patterns which provide solutions to problems that occur repeatedly during software development is discussed in detail in the concluding chapters. Two appendices provide solutions to two real-life problems. Case Studies, mapping of examples into Java code that are executable on computers, summary and Review Questions at the end of every chapter make the book reader friendly. The book will prove extremely useful to undergraduate and postgraduate students of Computer Science and Engineering, Information Technology, and Master of Computer Applications (MCA). It will also benefit professionals who wish to sharpen their programming skills using UML.

Software Development with UML

This is an introductory book to information modelling with UML, for entry level university students. It assumes no previous knowledge of UML on the part of the reader, and uses a case-based approach to present the material clearly and accessibly. It harmonises the UML notation with a full software development approach, from project conception through to testing, deployment and enhancement. The author is an experienced tutor, who also practices as a UML professional, and the cases are based upon his own experience. The book is accompanied by a website that provides solutions to end-of-chapter exercises, a password-protected tutor's file of further exercises with solutions, slides to accompany the book, and other support material. This book is suitable for all undergraduate computing and information systems, or Software Engineering courses. First year students will find it particulalry helpful for modules on systems development or analysis and design.

Real-Time UML Workshop for Embedded Systems

Written as a workbook with a set of guided exercises that teach by example, this book gives a practical, hands-on guide to using UML to design and implement embedded and real-time systems. A review of the basics of UML and the Harmony process for embedded software development: two on-going case examples to teach the concepts, a small-scale traffic light control system and a large scale unmanned air vehicle show the applications of UML to the specification, analysis and design of embedded and real-time systems in general. A building block approach: a series of progressive worked exercises with step-by-step explanations of the complete solution, clearly demonstrating how to convert concepts into actual designs. A walk through of the phases of an incremental spiral process: posing the problems and the solutions for requirements analysis, object analysis, architectural design, mechanistic design, and detailed design.

Applying UML

Advanced Applications

Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a general-purpose notation language for specifying and visualizing complex software, especially large, object-oriented projects. Object-oriented programming is when a programmer defines not only the data type of a data structure, but also the types of operations/functions that can be applied to the data structure. Applying UML addresses the practical issues faced by users in adopting UML. As the title suggests, it helps the reader in actually applying UML to real life situations, rather than just in learning the language. The book covers in depth detail of UML, including notation on profiles and extensions. The scope of the book assumes prior experience in software engineering and/or business modeling, an understanding of object-oriented concepts and a basic knowledge of UML. * Case study driven approach covering a wide range of issues * Contains advanced tutorial material to aid learning * Focuses on practical issues in the application of UML
