Understanding Language Structure, Interaction, and Variation

An Introduction to Applied Linguistics and Sociolinguistics for Nonspecialists

Understanding Language Structure, Interaction, and Variation is an introduction to the study of language and applied linguistics for students who have had a minimum of exposure to the discipline of linguistics. Using clear, easy-to-understand explanations and examples, this text avoids the in-depth theoretical coverage found in texts written for those who specialize in linguistics or SLA. As a result, this book is perfect for students whose chosen fields require them to be acquainted with the ways language works--such as future teachers, psychologists, sociologists, and anthropologists--but who do not intend to become linguists. The text is also suitable for English or ESL/EFL teachers who need a reference volume about various aspects of language, particularly as it applies to teaching. Each chapter includes research projects and further readings. The third edition of Understanding Language Structure, Interaction, and Variation features a new design and reorganization. All content has been significantly revised and updated. Each chapter also debunks a common language myth and now incorporates exercises that, for prior editions, appeared in a supplementary workbook. Extra practice for students is available online, as is additional materials for teachers. (There is no workbook for the third edition.)

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.
