    Study Notes

    Object-Oriented Analysis

    • A state adjective is a term used to describe an adjective that describes an object's current status.
    • A method refers to the tasks or functions that an object performs when it receives a message or command.

    Inheritance

    • Inheritance is a concept that enables an object to derive one or more of its attributes from another object.

    Object-Oriented Principles

    • Encapsulation is the idea that all data and methods of an object are self-contained.
    • A message is a term that refers to a command that tells an object to perform a certain method.

    Object-Oriented Analysis

    • In object-oriented analysis, an object represents a real-world entity in an information system.
    • The main focus of object-oriented analysis is to identify objects and their interactions.
    • O-O stands for Object-Oriented.

    System Analysis

    • Phase 2 of system analysis covers the development of a logical model of the system.

    Examples of Objects

    • According to Dr. Ahmed Hosny, an example of an object in an information system is a customer.

    Data and Process Modeling

    • The three main items involved in data and process modeling are entities, attributes, and processes.
    • The deliverable of data and process modeling is a logical model.
    • A logical model shows the relationships between entities, according to Dr. Ahmed Hosny.

    System Planning

    • The focus of the system planning phase is to define the overall system architecture.

    Four-Model Approach

    • The major benefit of the four-model approach in system design is that it provides a more comprehensive understanding of the system.
    • The only disadvantage of the four-model approach in system design is that it can be time-consuming and complex.

    Data Flow Diagrams (DFD)

    • A Data Flow Diagram (DFD) primarily shows the flow of data in an information system.
    • The symbol that represents a process in a Data Flow Diagram (DFD) is a rectangle.
    • The process symbol in a Data Flow Diagram (DFD) contains a description of the process, along with inputs, processing, and outputs.
