This book provides practical guidance on each of the key stages for designing and implementing a programme of development centres. These aim to match the right person to the right job and develop their potential to do the job well. The book aims to remove the mystery attached to development centre design, and illustrates ways in which training or personnel managers can create their own development centre materials, competences and processes which will work effectively within their own organization. The book could eliminate the need for costly consultants. The book features: contributions from a wide range of experts from major companies; comprehensive guidance to setting up development centres from design to implementation; and a projection of future trends.

<p>Software programmers developing GUI applications across a variety of platforms face a number of challenges. Object-Oriented GUI Application Development addresses these challenges by presenting an object-oriented life-cycle approach that integrates the process of developing an application with the development of the application's graphical user interface. Rather than focusing on the API level, Lee shows how the high-level abstractions of end user task model, application object model, and metaphor mental model can be used to guide the development of graphical user interfaces for a variety of graphical environments.<br>The first part of the book examines various software development approaches and their life-cycle activities. The second part focuses on analysis activities, including analyzing users and constructing the user task model and application object model. The third part presents user interface metaphor design, as well as object-oriented and contextual GUI design following Apple Macintosh, Microsoft Windows, Motif, OPEN LOOK, and NeXTSTEP styles. The fourth part examines GUI implementation on a number of graphical environments with various object-oriented toolkits or application frameworks.</p>
