Agile 2009 - Color Modeling

Color Modeling Improv

Peter Coad’s Color Modeling method is a simple, effective technique for building robust, elegant object models. One of the best ways to learn the Color Modeling approach is through an interactive demonstration. In this session, Daniel Vacanti and David Anderson will solicit examples from the audience and—with no preparation and using the Color Modeling approach—build a real, working model for each selected problem domain in the short time given. Both David and Daniel have used this demonstration technique with great success at previous conferences, tutorials, and commercial engagements.

SOA and Color Modeling

The method of Modeling in Color (MIC) has its foundation in object-oriented analysis and design; however, given today’s modern service oriented architectures (SOA), the approach is more relevant than ever. In any SOA, MIC can provide answers to difficult questions like: How are services properly designed? What’s the appropriate level of granularity for those services? Basic MIC techniques will be discussed and how to break a Color Model into discrete, loosely coupled components will be examined. How to convert the componentized model into XML schema and into XML web services will be explored.
