UI Design for iOS App Development: Using SwiftUI
by Bear CahillDesign is a challenge for most developers. Without a background or training in user interface skills, it’s hard to navigate what choices make the best sense for the end user. This book shows you how to migrate from Storyboards to SwiftUI to design dynamic and engaging UIs for iOS apps. SwiftUI is new in iOS 13 but you may want to support past versions as well. To satisfy this, you'll start by reviewing nib/xib files and Storyboards and then move into SwiftUI and explore how to design apps in both UI toolkits. Gaining a firm base in technologies old and new will allow you to future proof your UI during this period of transition. Developers generally want to stay in code, but UI development tends to be a visual effort. This book takes a very structured and code-like approach to UI design to take the fear away. You’ll grasp Storyboards and Auto-Layout/Constraints, while also learning to move past them with the easier options in SwiftUI. A clear understanding of both technologies is key to keeping your most functional coding and also making things look right. With UI Design for iOS App Development, you’ll learn SwiftUI easily and get back into your code quickly.What You'll LearnBuild iOS app UIs both in current and new paradigmsWork with Storyboards and Auto-Layout/ConstraintsDesign UIs in a coder friendly wayWho This Book Is ForiOS developers building a strong foundation in UI design to fill in the gaps from their training. For veteran developers, it’s vital to be able to match your coding skills with equal UI/UX abilities.

It shows how, with UML, simple models of business processes and specification models can be created and read with little effort.
UML 2.0 in a Nutshell: A Desktop Quick Reference
by Dan Pilone Neil PitmanSystem developers have used modeling languages for decades to specify, visualize, construct, and document systems. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is one of those languages. UML makes it possible for team members to collaborate by providing a common language that applies to a multitude of different systems. Essentially, it enables you to communicate solutions in a consistent, tool-supported language.Today, UML has become the standard method for modeling software systems, which means you're probably confronting this rich and expressive language more than ever before. And even though you may not write UML diagrams yourself, you'll still need to interpret diagrams written by others.UML 2.0 in a Nutshell from O'Reilly feels your pain. It's been crafted for professionals like you who must read, create, and understand system artifacts expressed using UML. Furthermore, it's been fully revised to cover version 2.0 of the language.This comprehensive new edition not only provides a quick-reference to all UML 2.0 diagram types, it also explains key concepts in a way that appeals to readers already familiar with UML or object-oriented programming concepts.Topics include:The role and value of UML in projectsThe object-oriented paradigm and its relation to the UMLAn integrated approach to UML diagramsClass and Object, Use Case, Sequence, Collaboration, Statechart, Activity, Component, and Deployment DiagramsExtension MechanismsThe Object Constraint Language (OCL)If you're new to UML, a tutorial with realistic examples has even been included to help you quickly familiarize yourself with the system.

UML Diagramming: A Case Study Approach
by Suriya SundaramoorthyThe Unified Modeling Language, better known as UML, has become the de facto standard modeling language for analyzing and designing software applications and systems. Software analysis and design is just as much an art as it is a science. UML Diagramming: A Catalog of Cases shows the art and the science behind successful software analysis and design with more than 35 case studies of applications of a variety of industries, including: Transportation Healthcare Supply chain management Education Agriculture Manufacturing The book explains UML diagramming through case studies to help systems and software developers specify, visualize, construct, and document the artifacts of software systems. The cases demonstrate how UML embodies software engineering best practices for modeling large and complex systems. They show how UML is an intuitive diagramming language that can be easily understood by end-users and business professionals. These cases studies also demonstrate how UML is a powerful language for communicating software designs to help developers and end users validate application scope, requirements, and features. Case studies highlighted in the book included: WEBMED healthcare service system services Inventory management system Business process outsourcing (BPO) management system Weather monitoring system Product recommendation system Textile management system Smart traffic management system Online pharmacy management system Placement automation system Farm management system Art gallery management system Website development This catalog of UML case studies is an invaluable reference for students studying software engineering, programmers starting out their careers, and seasoned systems developers needing a reference guide.

UNIX: The Textbook, Third Edition
by Syed Mansoor Sarwar Robert M. KoretskyUNIX: The Textbook, Third Edition provides a comprehensive introduction to the modern, twenty-first-century UNIX operating system. The book deploys PC-BSD and Solaris, representative systems of the major branches of the UNIX family, to illustrate the key concepts. It covers many topics not covered in older, more traditional textbook approaches, such as Python, UNIX System Programming from basics to socket-based network programming using the client-server paradigm, the Zettabyte File System (ZFS), and the highly developed X Windows-based KDE and Gnome GUI desktop environments. The third edition has been fully updated and expanded, with extensive revisions throughout. It features a new tutorial chapter on the Python programming language and its use in UNIX, as well as a complete tutorial on the git command with Github. It includes four new chapters on UNIX system programming and the UNIX API, which describe the use of the UNIX system call interface for file processing, process management, signal handling, interprocess communication (using pipes, FIFOs, and sockets), extensive coverage of internetworking with UNIX TCP/IP using the client-server software, and considerations for the design and implementation of production-quality client-server software using iterative and concurrent servers. It also includes new chapters on UNIX system administration, ZFS, and container virtualization methodologies using iocage, Solaris Jails, and VirtualBox. Utilizing the authors’ almost 65 years of practical teaching experience at the college level, this textbook presents well-thought-out sequencing of old and new topics, well-developed and timely lessons, a Github site containing all of the code in the book plus exercise solutions, and homework exercises/problems synchronized with the didactic sequencing of chapters in the book. With the exception of four chapters on system programming, the book can be used very successfully by a complete novice, as well as by an experienced UNIX system user, in both an informal and formal learning environment. The book may be used in several computer science and information technology courses, including UNIX for beginners and advanced users, shell and Python scripting, UNIX system programming, UNIX network programming, and UNIX system administration. It may also be used as a companion to the undergraduate and graduate level courses on operating system concepts and principles.
