1. UML: Unified Modeling Language zStory: yWhat UML is for ySome of the main diagrams are and what you use them for xClass diagrams and class forms xUse Case Diagrams xSequence (Event) Diagram xState Diagrams yAn example

2. UML: Unified Modeling Language zDeveloped by the “Three Amigos”: Grady Booch, Jim Rumbaugh, Ivar Jacobson yEach had their own development methodology yMore or less emphasis on notation and process zUML is a notation and a process yDiagrams and notation from UML 1.3 Definition (http://www.rational.com)

3. Diagrams zClass diagrams: Represents static structure zUse case diagrams: Sequence of actions a system performs to yield an observable result to an actor zSequence diagrams:Shows how groups of objects interact in some behavior zState diagrams: Describes behavior of system by describing states of an object

4. Class Diagrams zBetter name: “Static structure diagram” yDoesn’t describe temporal aspects yDoesn’t describe individual objects: Only the overall structure of the system zThere are “object diagrams” where the boxes represent instances yBut rarely used—other diagrams serve the role of describing object interaction better yWhen used, object diagrams describe static structure, like a data structure

5. Different Levels of Specifying Classes

6. Notation in Class Boxes zAbstract classes (and operations) in italics z+ is public, - is private, # is protected zCan also specify stereotypes or compartments y“constructors” or “query” y“controller”

7. Other variations in Class specifications zUse of templates, interfaces, and types zCan even specify body of methods

8. Components of Class Diagrams zMultiplicities yHow many of each? zLabels to indicate how reference is viewed zRole and Association classes

9. Navigability and Aggregations zNavigability yWho owns/contains/has who? yArrows not strictly required zAggregation: Open diamond y“Part-of” relationship, but disagreement zComposition: closed diamond yPart can only belong to whole

10. Qualifiers zServes to describe an instance variable that partitions the relationship.

11. Use Case Diagrams zMeans of capturing requirements zDocument interactions between user(s) and the system yUser (actor) is not part of the system itself yBut an actor can be another system zAn individual use case represents a task to be done with support from the system (thus it is a ‘coherent unit of functionality’)

12. Simple Use Case Diagram Reserve book Borrow book Return book

13. Use Case Diagram with Multiple Actors

14. Use Cases zAre actually defined as text, including descriptions of all of the normal and exception behavior expected zDo not reveal the structure of the system zCollectively define the boundaries of the system to be implemented zProvide the basis for defining development iterations

15. Example Use Case Diagram (Advanced Features)

16. Sequence (Event) Diagrams zShows individual objects and how they interact zDescribes yLifelines of objects yWho sends what messages when yCan also describe sending messages to self ("self-delegation") yCan describe guards, notes, etc.

17. Example Sequence Diagram

18. State Diagrams zDescribe all the possible states a particular object can get into, and the events that lead to those changes zAlso called a "statechart"

19. Example State Diagram

20. Other Kinds of UML Diagrams zCollaboration Diagrams yAn alternative to sequence diagrams for describing the flow of messages between objects

21. Other kinds of UML Diagrams zActivity Diagrams yAlternative to statecharts

22. Other kinds of UML Diagrams zImplementation Diagrams yDown at the detail level xWhat piece of code goes where? xHow are they connected?

23. UML in Real Practice zYou don't typically use all the diagrams yYou'll choose between them based on preference and particular situation zYou typically use many diagrams yA single use case may not capture all scenarios yIf you are going to use statecharts, there are probably lots of objects with states yEach sequence/collaboration diagram only shows one interaction

24. Example: Student Registration System zNot going to do all the diagrams yNot all types, not even all that completely specify the system zBut this is an application you know, so the examples may help make sense
