August 1, 1999 Update
Over the last few months I have received many comments from readers.
In particular, there has been a great deal of interest in the use-case
flow discussion found in Chapter 6. One firm, Blueprint
Technologies, has developed a tool for managing this technique. Based
on the response, it has become clear to me and others that flowdown deserves
more study, in particular, there is a need for standardize terminology
and UML notation. To that end, James Pietrocarlo, a Technical Lead at
Rational Software, and myself have written a white paper, Use Case
Anatomy and Systems of Subsystems, showing how to capture and structure
the use case flowdown in UML. This whitepaper will be made available in
a later update.
John Kahila had some concerns about PERT
November 13, 1998 Update
In this update, I have responded to and added some reader comments. In
particular, there is a discussion of 'uses' and 'extends' for use cases,
a table of use case levels, and a definition of defect level.
November 1, 1998 Update
In this update, I have added a new page containing feedback from the
readers. I will use this page to publish some of the great comments I
have received from readers. Also this page will be used to publish corrections
to errors pointed out by the readers.
A few readers have had trouble with downloading the sample files. I have
added a couple of lines of instructions. I have also added a zip file
containing all of the files. Finally, I have updated the .mpx file using
the new version of Project '98.
September 14, 1998 Update
I have added a new page which contains some useful references that are
not included in the book. Also at the request of some folks at Rational
software, I added some some links to their Rational Unified Process to
the Web Sites page.
