Architecture And Structure

The title of this issue of the Nexus Network Journal, "Architecture, Mathematics and Structure," is deliberately ambiguous. At first glance, it might seem to indicate the relationship between what buildings look like and how they stand up.

This text offers a coherent and integrated approach to the discipline of software architectural design and covers a complete set of important methodologies, architectural styles, design guidelines, and design tools. The Java language is used throughout the book to explain design principles and present case studies. Review questions, exercises, and design assignments round out each chapter and allow students to test themselves on key material.
