This talk discusses eleven advanced principles of object oriented design in the context of UML. Students will learn the basics of UML notation, and how to apply it in the context of object oriented design. Principles include the Open Closed Principle, The Dependency Inversion Principle, and the Stable Abstractions Principle. Topics range from detailed techniques for designing classes, to principles for partitioning classes into packages, to design metrics for measuring various qualities of an object oriented design.
