This is a 6-part video series entitled C++ Models by Dr. James Fawcett. Each video describes different conceptual models underlying the C++ programming language. Discussion with exemplars is used to illustrate how the models apply to aspects of the language for effective use. In this series, eight fundamental models are covered: Code Structure, Compilation, Program Execution, Use of Memory, Classes, Object Model, and Templates.

Part 1 of this 6-part video series discusses techniques for structuring code to support an effective code management strategy (specifically with regard to readability and maintenance) as software systems become large and difficult to understand. The use of packages with object factories and interfaces is discussed with an example.
