John Lakos

Large-Scale C++ Software Design

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Geared to practical aspects of the C++ programming language, this book demonstrates how to design large systems. The author explains the process of decomposing large systems into physical hierarchies of smaller, more manageable components. This book concludes with a top-down approach to the logical design of individual components.

Autorenporträt

John Lakos works at Mentor Graphics, a company that has written more large scale C++ programs than most other software companies and was among the first companies to attempt truly large-scale C++ projects. Lakos has been programming professionally in C++ since 1987, and in 1990 developed Columbia University's graduate course in object-oriented programming which he continues to teach. 0201633620AB04062001
