SynopsisAnti-Patterns - ein 'hei?es Thema' in der Welt des objektorientierten Programmierens. Anti-Patterns helfen bei der Identifikation haufiger Fehler, Irrtumer und Mangel, die objektorientierte Projekte zum Scheitern bringen konnen. Wie Sie diese Muster erkennen und wie Sie effektiv darauf reagieren, zeigt Ihnen dieses Buch ubersichtlich und anhand vieler Fallbeispiele. (04/98), Patterns are popular in software development and used to identify different types of procedures, designs, or codes that work. AntiPatterns are the exact opposite, targeting common errors and issues that can cause a project to fail. This book provides practical guidelines on detecting AntiPatterns and the refactored solutions that correct them., "The AntiPatterns authors have clearly been there and done that when it comes to managing software development efforts. I resonated with one insight after another, having witnessed too many wayward projects myself. The experience in this book is palpable." -John Vlissides, IBM Research "This book allows managers, architects, and developers to learn from the painful mistakes of others. The high-level AntiPatterns on software architecture are a particularly valuable contribution to software engineering. Highly recommended!" -Kyle Brown Author of The Design Patterns Smalltalk Companion "AntiPatterns continues the trend started in Design Patterns. The authors have discovered and named common problem situations resulting from poor management or architecture control, mistakes which most experienced practitioners will recognize. Should you find yourself with one of the AntiPatterns, they even provide some clues on how to get yourself out of the situation." -Gerard Meszaros, Chief Architect, Object Systems Group Are you headed into the software development mine field? Follow someone if you can, but if youre on your own-better get the map! AntiPatterns is the map. This book helps you navigate through todays dangerous software development projects. Just look at the statistics: Nearly one-third of all software projects are cancelled. Two-thirds of all software projects encounter cost overruns in excess of 200%. Over 80% of all software projects are deemed failures. While patterns help you to identify and implement procedures, designs, and codes that work, AntiPatterns do the exact opposite; they let you zero-in on the development detonators, architectural tripwires, and personality booby traps that can spell doom for your project. Written by an all-star team of object-oriented systems developers, AntiPatterns identifies 40 of the most common AntiPatterns in the areas of software development, architecture, and project management. The authors then show you how to detect and defuse AntiPatterns as well as supply refactored solutions for each AntiPattern presented., Where design patterns identify different types of procedures, designs or code that worked in object-oriented projects, anti-patterns target those common mistakes, defects or errors that can adversely affect object-oriented projects and systems. This book discusses what anti-patterns are and also provides concrete guidelines on what to do once the patterns are detected. For each pattern covered, the authors provide a solution to the anti-pattern, why it occurs and a case study where that solution worked. Patterns that are related to each other are cross-referenced., "The AntiPatterns authors have clearly been there and done that when it comes to managing software development efforts. I resonated with one insight after another, having witnessed too many wayward projects myself. The experience in this book is palpable." -John Vlissides, IBM Research "This book allows managers, architects, and developers to learn from the painful mistakes of others.

  • Should be a required management textbook

    Countless books exist to tell you how to be successful in the workplace, but almost none of them address how not to fail. We have all seen managers try to apply business models and strategies that should theoretically work, only to fall flat due to your office's underlying dysfunctions. This book covers patterns of dysfunction and failure, and provides recommendations on how to overcome them. It has been of more value and enlightening to me than any leadership or management training that I have received. This has the whit and insights of a Dilbert cartoon, but with answers. I cannot recommend this book enough, since it has fundamentally changed my understanding of management.
