Study Notes
Interaction Diagrams
- Focuses on the interaction level
- Shows how objects interact with each other
- Uses sequence diagrams and collaboration diagrams
Class Descriptions
- Attributes are characteristics of a class
- Operations describe behavior of a class
- Messages are communication between classes
- Instances are individual objects of a class
Behavioral Models
- Describe how a system works and changes during use
- Examples:
- Activity diagrams with swimlanes
- Sequence diagrams
- Behavioral State Machine diagrams
- CRUDE Matrix
Behavioral State Machine Diagrams
- Not drawn for all objects in a system
- Used specifically for complex objects
- Shows how the state of an object changes
Sequence Diagram vs. Behavioral State Machine Diagram
- Sequence diagram is used for a use case scenario
- Behavioral State Machine diagram is used for a complex object
Objects and Their Behaviors
- Objects have behaviors described by operations
- State of an object is the collection of its data
- Behavior can transition an object from one state to another
Creating Sequence Diagrams
- Determine the context from a use case scenario
- Identify the interacting objects
- Create lifelines for each object
- Add messages exchanged between objects
- Show focus of control on each object's lifeline
- Validate the diagram to ensure completeness
States in Behavioral State Machine Diagrams
- Usually use filled circles for initial and final states
- Initial state indicated by a filled circle
- Final state indicated by a "bullseye" circle
Transitions in Behavioral State Machine Diagrams
- Caused by:
- Data Value change: When the object's data changes
- Boolean Condition: When a condition is met
