Using Visual Studio .NET (VS .NET) for creating enterprise solutions, authors John Hansen and Carsten Thomsen have chosen to add the Unified Modeling Language (UML), for designing and documenting solutions, and the Microsoft Solutions Framework (MSF), for planning and managing projects.
Experienced developers, team leaders, and project managers who need a structured way of creating enterprise solutions will benefit from reading this book. Parts of this book can be used by developers (experienced or not) and managers who want to know about MSF and UML in connection with .NET development.
This guide provides an enterprise development overview, an in-depth introduction to UML, and coverage of various enterprise tools included with the VS .NET Enterprise Developer (VSED) and VS .NET Enterprise Architect (VSEA) editions, such as enterprise template projects, Visual SourceSafe (VSS), Visio for Enterprise Architects 2003 (VEA), Microsoft Application Center Test (ACT), and Visual Studio Analyzer.
Not only will you learn how to deploy your project, but also two hands-on chapters will show you how to analyze your project and model it using VEA, and guide you step-by-step through the process.
For most readers, this is a cover-to-cover book, but it can certainly be used as a reference guide whenever you need information about a particular tool or process. Throughout this book, youll find exercises that demonstrate the topic being discussed, making this book a must-have for programmers dealing with, or those with an interest in, developing enterprise .NET solutions.
Thomsen and Hansen give easy-to-understand examples and provide readers with everything they need to create Enterprise solutions with .NET.
Enterprise Development with Visual Studio .NET, UML and MSF is for programmers
dealing with or those that have an interest in developing Enterprise .NET
solutions. It will guide readers through all aspects of Enterprise modeling,
from design considerations and project management design processes to modeling
a .NET solution using UML. In today's IT world the need for complex solutions
designed the right way and delivered on time is a success factor for the
entire Enterprise. Enterprise Development with Visual Studio .NET, UML
and MSF will help readers succeed by providing them with guides and examples
that they can use in their own .NET projects. It will cover the Microsoft
Solutions Framework and how to benefit from this process when designing.
Programmers can also use this book as a reference or as a step-by-step
guide for creating Enterprise solutions the right way with design processes,
UML, .NET Framework, and C# and VB .NET.
