The Rational Unified Process: An Introduction (3rd Edition)

SUMMARY

• A key feature of the Rational Unified Process is its approach to incremental integration throughout the lifecycle.

• During the construction phase, you build an evolutionary, structural prototype that becomes the final system.

• In parallel, you can build a few throwaway behavioral prototypes to explore issues such as the user interface.

• Round-trip engineering is a technique, supported by a tool such as Rose, that closely ties together the design and the implementation of a software development effort.
