Study Notes

Object-Oriented Systems Midterm

Class Diagrams: The boxes on a class diagram represent a set of attributes.
Iterative Development: Iterative development is not the same as Agile development. (Note: This is debated, as Agile Development is a type of iterative development. However, it might be specific to the course. If you have clarification for this answer, provide it in your notes.)
System Architect: A person who plans, understands needs, and captures the vision for a new system is often called a System Analyst.
Closed-Ended Questions: The strength of closed-ended questions is that they limit answers to a set of choices.
UML: UML stands for Unified Modeling Language.
Technology Architecture: The term technology architecture refers to the hardware, network, and system software.
Successful Interviews: Every successful interview requires preparation.
State Events: A state event is an event that occurs when something happens outside the system that triggers the need for processing. (This is True)
Timed Event: An event that occurs by reaching a point in time is called a timed event.
User Stories vs. Use Cases: User stories differ from use cases in the amount of detail captured.
Event Decomposition Technique: The event decomposition technique begins by identifying use cases. (This is True)
Association Classes: Association classes are frequently required for many-to-many relationships.
State Machine Diagrams: A state machine diagram documents the states and transitions of an object.
Cardinality: The cardinality of a class is not a measure of the number of objects in a class.
Activity Diagrams: An oval indicates an embedded use case inside of an activity diagram. (This is True)
Object-Oriented Modeling: The advantage of object-oriented modeling using multiple models is that developing new models helps gain deeper understanding of user requirements.
Precondition in Use Case: In a fully developed use case description, the preconditions describe the conditions that must be true before the use case can begin.
