Egon Boerger, Robert Staerk, "Abstract State Machines: A Method for High-Level
System Design and Analysis"
Springer | ISBN 3540007024 | 2003 Year | PDF | 2 Mb | 438 Pages
“ The systems engineering method proposed in this book, which is based on
Abstract State Machines (ASMs), guides the development of software and embedded
hardware-software systems seamlessly from requirements capture to actual
implementation and documentation. The method bridges the gap between the human
understanding and formulation of real-world problems and the deployment of their
algorithmic solutions by code-executing machines. Within a single conceptual
framework it covers design, verification by reasoning techniques, and validation
by simulation and testing. ASMs improve current industrial practice by using
accurate high-level modeling and by linking the descriptions at the successive
stages of system development in an organic and efficiently maintainable chain of
rigorous and coherent system models at stepwise-refined abstraction levels. In
several industrial projects the ASM method has proven its superiority compared
to the popular UML methodology when designing complex parallel or dynamic
systems. This book combines the features of a textbook and a handbook: the
reader will find detailed explanations, proofs, and exercises as well as
numerous examples and real-world case studies. Researchers will find here the
most comprehensive description of ASMs available today and professionals will
use it as a "modeling handbook for the working software engineer." As a textbook
it supports self-study or it can form the basis of a lecture course. The book is
complemented by a CD containing the whole book text, additional course material,
solutions to exercises, and additional examples. Even more information can be
found on the related website maintained by the authors:

Thomas Lengauer, et al, "Bioinformatics: From Genomes to Drugs"
Wiley-VCH | ISBN 3527299882 | 2001 Year | PDF | 7,9 Mb | 648 Pages
“ Bioinformatics - the use of computers to retrieve, process, analyze and
simulate biological information - promises to revolutionize the process of drug
discovery and development. This book provides a broad, application-oriented
overview of this technology. Contributions by internationally renowned
specialists in the field afford a detailed insight into single bioinformatics
components and algorithmic methods. In addition, the state-of-the-art in
bioinformatics is evaluated equally from a global view by introducing real

The profound knowledge on bioinformatics presented here not only enables readers
to go beyond a mere push-button approach to using bioinformatics software and
interpreting the data generated appropriately. It is also essential to assess
the potential and limitations of today's bioinformatics software and future
challenges. Directed to all those involved in the use or development of new
bioinformatics tools - scientists and managers from the fields of molecular
biotechnology, pharmaceutics, and medicinal chemistry - this book will lead one
step further on the way to rational drug design.

Bhuvan Unhelkar, "Verification and Validation for Quality of UML 2.0 Models"
Wiley-Interscience | ISBN 0471727830 | 2005 Year | PDF | 1,28 Mb | 312 Pages
“ A practical approach to enhancing quality in software models using UML Version
2.0
"Despite its increasing usage, many companies are not taking the best advantage
of UML and, occasionally, individuals have experienced frustration in applying
its standards. Perhaps this is because they have not yet read this book!"
-From the Foreword by Prof. Brian Henderson-Sellers
This book presents a practical checklist approach to enhancing the quality of
software models created with the Unified Modeling Language (UML) Version 2.0.
The foundation for quality is set by the discussion on the nature and creation
of UML models. This is followed by a demonstration of how to apply verification
and validation checks to these models with three foci: syntactical correctness,
semantic meaningfulness, and aesthetic symmetry. The quality work is carried out
within three distinct yet related modeling spaces:
Model of problem space (MOPS)
Model of solution space (MOSS)
Model of background space (MOBS)
Readers can then choose a specific quality approach according to their roles in
their projects.
Verification and validation checks are also organized according to these three
modeling spaces, making it easier for the reader to focus on the appropriate
diagrams and quality checks corresponding to their modeling space. In addition,
a major element of this publication is the Strengths, Weaknesses, Objectives,
and Traps (SWOT) analysis. This analysis is performed on each UML diagram,
enabling readers to fully comprehend these diagrams, their advantages and
limitations, and the way in which they can be used in practical projects for
modeling.
A consistent case study of the Lucky Insurance System is provided throughout the
chapters to illustrate the creation of good quality UML diagrams, followed by
