System Modelling in Object Oriented Design and Analysis

System Modelling in Object Oriented Design and Analysis (ICT205)

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

Learning Outcome

  • identify the classes, their attributes and hierarchical relationships from a set of requirements
  • outline the associations among a set of classes as part of a structural processing
  • develop the initial structural model from a set of requirements
  • test the implementation of a basic system
  • diagram essential components of a system with a modelling language
  • develop a structural model with the Unified Modelling Language
  • construct dynamic models of a system with a modelling language
  • implement a dynamic model in Java
