5. ISIISI June 2001 - G. Falquet, L. NerimaClasses 5 Manage phone calls To manage phone calls, the telephone exchange is equipped with a system which allows the drivers to give their position by indicating the area in which they are idle with a vehicle. When a customer asks for a taxi, the operator assigns him or her a vehicle located in the area. If no taxi is in the area, it is necessary to find the closest vehicle. Manage calls Operator Vehicle Idle Booked Use caseObjects States Out of service

Less interesting for some fields. vsequence3 quite often used, well understood vcollaboration 2 object diagram used, but collaboration modeling marginal vstatecharts2 strong usage in real time applications, rarely used in the sevice industries vactivity1 introduced late in the environments, local cultural habit in some sectors of the sevice industries vcomponent/deployment 1 only few people use it, on a few parts of their applications

47. ISIISI June 2001 - G. Falquet, L. NerimaClasses 47 Conclusion vWe presented almost all the features of the UML ! (omitting details) vModeling is important vModel in several dimensions to have a comprehensive and complete view of your system vNext: exercice on a small but real application (in your domain of course) vStart with the diagrams you feel confortable with vPractice structural AND dynamic modeling v… we hope you learned some valuable information on the UML
