Study Notes
Understanding UML
- The learning outcome involving applying knowledge of UML is using UML diagrams to model software systems.
Use Case Diagrams
- System boundary: Represents the dividing line between the system and its external interactions.
- Actors: Roles played by entities external to the system.
- Use cases communicate the system's functionality from a user perspective.
- Components NOT included in a use case diagram: System classes.
- Use cases omit internal system details and implementation specifics.
- Relationships NOT typically found in a use case diagram: Generalization.
- Primary role of use cases: Identifying system requirements and user interactions.
Software Development Models
- Prototyping Model advantage: Enables early user feedback and validation.
- Incremental Model suitability: Projects requiring early releases of functional components.
- Prototyping Model drawback: Potential risk of developing a non-robust final product.
- Prototyping Model usefulness: Exploring system feasibility and gathering user requirements.
Use Case Components
- Main scenario: Describes the typical, successful flow of events.
- Not included in a use case's flow of events: Class diagrams.
- Primary goal of Prototyping Model: Quickly create a working model to demonstrate system functionality.
- Purpose of alternative flows: Handling exceptions, variations, and error conditions.
- Prototyping Model benefit NOT included: Detailed documentation and documentation from the start.
- Use case template section focusing on the goal: Purpose.
- Key reason for choosing Incremental Model over traditional models: Reduced risk and early feedback.
- Information NOT in the use case template: Detailed design considerations.
- Prototype delivery to customer: Provides a tangible representation of the system for feedback.
Library System Use Cases
- Action before reserving books: Member must authenticate.
- 'Extend' relationship meaning: Adding optional behavior to a base use case.
- Base use case in an extend relationship: The main, core functionality.
- Linking 'Enroll In Uni' and 'Perform Visa Check': Include relationship.
- Customer action in SLIIT Library System: Searching for books and paying fines.
- Include relationship definition: Adding a common piece of functionality to multiple use cases.
- Validating user in library system goal: Authenticating and authorizing access.
- Typical content of a use case diagram: Identifying core functionality and system interactions.
