Synopsis

This course introduces the skills in analysing requirements and performing system modelling for an application using the object-oriented paradigm. It will focus strongly on the practical aspects of object-oriented analysis and design. Topics include developing the initial structural model from a set of requirements, performing the dynamic modelling to produce the basic design of a system, implementing a dynamic model in Java, testing the implementation of a basic system, and using some of the features of a modelling language. As this is a practical course, working knowledge of an object-oriented programming language is essential. The language that will be used in the course is Java.

Level: 2
Credit Units: 5
Presentation Pattern: Every semester
E-Learning: BLENDED - Learning is done MAINLY online using interactive study materials in Canvas. Students receive guidance and support from online instructors via discussion forums and emails. This is supplemented with SOME face-to-face sessions. If the course has an exam component, this will be administered on-campus.

Topics

The fundamentals of structural analysis in object-oriented system design: producing the class association diagram and the class description
Dynamic modelling of the behaviour of an individual object: analysing changes of state
Dynamic modelling of the behaviour of a system: performing walkthroughs with use cases and class diagrams
Dynamic modelling of the behaviour of a system: analysing system behaviour with sequence diagrams
System implementation: producing the program codes from design
System integration: combining user interfaces with application functions
