Safari resources for this course... --> How to get to
Safari: On the Rose home page Quick links pick "Logan Library". There, click on Logan Library Databases and then on that page pick "Safari Tech Books Online." At some point you have to identify yourself with your Rose Login. Safari will let you then pick and read any book we are authorized to read (possibly restricted if someone else is currently reading that book). Searching by author name usually delivers the right book on the first try. |
Recommended Safari books for this course are: UML Distilled: A Brief Guide to the Standard Object Modeling
Language,
Second Edition By Martin Fowler, Kendall Scott Extreme Programming Explained By Kent Beck Pair Programming Illuminated By Laurie Williams, Robert
Kessler Other "design
pattern" books - search for these by subject. Let me know if you find
good ones! (Unfortunately you also have to wade through books on Perl
programming and such.) |
This is Patterns and Software: Essential Concepts and Terminology, by
Brad Appleton
|
|
|
"Qualities for multi-ethnic customer relations" |
I had a good link giving advice on client relations - dealing with people who are not necessarily like the developers. Still looking! |
|
"A few interesting links about lateral thinking" - The theory, and some puzzles |
A link explaining this creativity method, and a sample of the classic brain teaser puzzles that use lateral thinking. |
|
These examples all show current practice, though some are better than others at highlighting quality attributes, and none use the scenarios or views that we do. |
