Object Oriented Design

The course note presents the theory and practice of object-oriented programming. It enhances students understanding of the concepts of object, class, message, method, inheritance, and genericity. This note covers a basic model for objects; the principles of types and polymorphism in object-oriented programming languages; different forms of abstraction; and theory and practice of reuse. The course also introduces students to some object-oriented design patterns that practitioners have found useful.

Object Oriented Programming by Carl Erickson

Carl Erickson's note on Object-Oriented Programming introduces the OOP paradigm in detail. It first gives an explanation of Motivation for Object-Oriented Programming and The Object-Oriented Paradigm, including insights as to why OOP is effective. The note discusses essential concepts of OOP: Abstraction, Identity, Encapsulation, and Modularity, object-oriented messaging, and object-oriented hierarchy. It also discussed naming conventions, object-oriented typing, and concurrency and persistence. Other heads-up are on practical aspects of OOP: the Object-Oriented Development Process and ObjectOriented Analysis Techniques. It also provides tools for effective design through the use of UML notation, CRC cards, and object-oriented class relationships. In simple terms, this can be a useful resource to understand the theoretical and practical aspects of OOP regarding its pitfalls and best practices.

Elements of Object Oriented Program Design

Following is an exploration of object-oriented program design with an emphasis on how to make the transition from Scheme to Java. Covers: Java mechanics and data types; static fields and the Singleton pattern; simple graph algorithms, object oriented data structures-all in a very hands-on way. Discusses GUI programming, graphical user interfaces, including design. This resource, therefore, presents theoretical findings appropriately supported with practical examples that are very crucial in the understanding of object-oriented design principles and their application in Java; thus, it is suitable for learners seeking to upgrade their programming skills and knowledge in design.
