Snow Story - Click here for more info

White magic: a lyrical, memorable child's celebration of snow From her window the next morning, Chloe saw a world that was white and still, a smooth piece of drawing paper waiting for an artist... In a story as gentle and soft as falling snow, acclaimed children's writer Nancy Hundal and accomplished artist Kasia Charko have created a lyrical, warmly realistic celebration of snow. After a storm, Chloe discovers the transforming power of snow, delighting in a colorful snow angel, the feeling of her toes -- so cold, that 'she thought they'd snap off like icicles inside her boots' -- and the inescapable fact that there are two kinds of grown-ups in this world: those who like snow, and those who don't. With Nancy Hundal's gift for inhabiting the mind and heart of a child, paired beautifully with Kasia Charko's softly glowing color illustrations, Snow Story is a winter wonderland of a story, a warm reading pleasure to be experienced again and again. - Category: Books Reading - Misc. - New - Item: 461718600 - Snow Story

Applying Use Cases  A Practical Guide

Applying Use Cases A Practical Guide


Many projects struggle to define the specific functions of software, and end users often find that the final product does not perform as expected. Use cases allow analysts to identify the required features of a software system based on how every end user will use the system. This efficient and straightforward analysis process gives end users direct input into the design of the system that will serve them. Applying Use Cases provides a practical and clear introduction to developing use cases, demonstrating their use via a continuing case study. Using the Unified Software Development Process as a framework and the Unified Modeling Language (UML) as a notation, the authors step the reader through applying use cases in the different phases of the process, focusing on where and how use cases are best applied. Other highlights include: A collection of realistic examples showing how to apply use cases, drawn from the authors' extensive experience in this area A case study that offers insight into the common mistakes and pitfalls that can plague an object-oriented project An illustration of the latest version of the UML notation for diagramming use cases A practical 'how-to' discussion on applying use cases to identify system requirements 0201309815B04062001 - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461410792 - Applying Use Cases A Practical Guide
