Hassan Gomaa is Professor and former Chair of the Department of Computer Science at George Mason University. Gomaa has more than thirty years' experience in software engineering, both in industry and academia. He has taught short in-depth industrial courses on real-time software design in North America, Europe, Japan, and South Korea.
'This book reports on a comprehensive, practical, and thorough approach to model-driven requirements, analysis, architecture, and design of real-time embedded systems. Another very interesting feature is the numerous, detailed case studies illustrating the proposed methodology. I strongly recommend Hassan Gomaa's new book to faculty members teaching software development, computer science students, and software engineers.' Lionel Briand, IEEE Fellow, Professor and Vice-Director, SnT Centre, University of Luxembourg 'A thoroughly modern and comprehensive work. Gomaa has managed to successfully combine in a single volume a reference book for experienced practitioners and a highly readable pedagogical text for students. It covers all the key facets of current embedded software design: from requirements specification to implementation, from architecture to coding.' Bran Selic, Malina Software Corp. 'This textbook contains material that is 'battle-tested' in graduate courses, and includes in-depth case studies that allow readers to see concepts applied. The book describes a hands-on design method, coupled to an industry standard notation and applied to a wide array of software design challenges.'
