Designed for a first Computer Science (CS1) Java course, JAVA PROGRAMMING: FROM PROBLEM ANALYSIS TO PROGRAM DESIGN, 5e, International Edition will motivate your students while building a cornerstone for the Computer Science curriculum. With a focus on your students' learning, this text approaches programming using the latest version of Java, and includes updated programming exercises and programs. The engaging and clear-cut writing style will help your students learn key concepts through concise explanations and practice in this complex and powerful language.

Continuing the success of the popular second edition, the updated and revised Object-Oriented Data Structures Using Java, Third Edition is sure to be an essential resource for students learning data structures using the Java programming language. It presents traditional data structures and object-oriented topics with an emphasis on problem-solving, theory, and software engineering principles. Beginning early and continuing throughout the text, the authors introduce and expand upon the use of many Java features including packages, interfaces, abstract classes, inheritance, and exceptions. Numerous case studies provide readers with real-world examples and demonstrate possible solutions to interesting problems. The authors' lucid writing style guides readers through the rigor of standard data structures and presents essential concepts from logical, applications, and implementation levels. Key concepts throughout the Third Edition have been clarified to increase student comprehension and retention, and end-of-chapter exercises have been updated and modified. New and Key Features to the Third Edition: -Includes the use of generics throughout the text, providing the dual benefits of allowing for a type safe use of data structures plus exposing students to modern approaches. -This text is among the first data structures textbooks to address the topic of concurrency and synchonization, which are growing in the importance as computer systems move to using more cores and threads to obtain additional performance with each new generation. Concurrency and synchonization are introduced in the new Section 5.7, where it begins with the basics of Java threads. -Provides numerous case studies and examples of the problem solving process. Each case study includes problem description, an analysis of the problem input and required output, and a discussion of the appropriate data structures to use. -Expanded chapter exercises allow you as the instructor to reinforce topics for your students using both theoretical and practical questions. -Chapters conclude with a chapter summary that highlights the most important topics of the chapter and ties together related topics.

The design and analysis of efficient data structures has long been recognized as a key component of the Computer Science curriculum. Goodrich, Tomassia and Goldwasser's approach to this classic topic is based on the object-oriented paradigm as the framework of choice for the design of data structures. For each ADT presented in the text, the authors provide an associated Java interface. Concrete data structures realizing the ADTs are provided as Java classes implementing the interfaces. The Java code implementing fundamental data structures in this book is organized in a single Java package, net.datastructures. This package forms a coherent library of data structures and algorithms in Java specifically designed for educational purposes in a way that is complimentary with the Java Collections Framework.

Data structures provide a means to managing large amounts of information such as large databases, using SEO effectively, and creating Internet/Web indexing services.

"Designing Data Structures in Java" provides a solid foundation for anyone seeking to understand the how and the why of programming data structures. Intended for the reader with an introductory Java background, this book aims to meet the needs of students enrolled in a typical "Data Structures and Algorithms with Java" (CS2) course. Starting with a description of the software development process, the book takes a problem-solving approach to programming, and shows how data structures form the building blocks of well-designed and cleanly-implemented programs. Topics include: Problem solving, Abstraction, Java objects and references, Arrays, Abstract Data Types, Ordered lists, Sorting, Algorithm evaluation, Binary searches, Stacks, Queues, Linked Lists, Double-ended lists, Recursion, Doubly-linked lists, Binary Search Trees, Traversals, Heaps, and more. Mr. Brouillette's 25+ years of experience as a software engineer and educator allow him to bring a unique and refreshing perspective to the topic of data structures which is rigorous, accessible and practical. Material is presented in a 'top down' approach, beginning with explanations of why different data structures are used, continuing with clearly illustrated concepts of how the structures work, and ending with clear, neat Java code examples. Succinct graphics provide visual representations of the ideas, and verbal explanations supplement the documented code. Each chapter ends with a Chapter Checklist summary page which distills and highlights the most important ideas from the chapter. The book is intended as a step by step explanation and exploration of the how and why of using Data Structures in modern computer program development. Even though the Java language is used in the explanation and implementation of the various structures, the concepts are applicable to other languages which the reader may encounter in the future. The topics included have been sequenced to build upon each other, always with the perspective of the beginning programming student in mind. There are discussions of software engineering concepts and goals, and motivations for learning different data structures. This text brings the beginning Java student from novice programmer to the next level of programming maturity.
