    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This text emphasizes object-oriented design and covers traditional analysis and design paradigms.

    It stresses learn-by-doing with all major concepts supported by a running case study throughout the text, exercises, and a companion Project Workbook.

    The projects in the Workbook are based on the use of a CASE tool (software that helps systems analysts develop computer systems by integrating various diagramming and charting tools through a data encyclopedia).

    Coverage includes all the HOT topics -- RAD, JAD, Client/Server, and Prototyping.
