You Will Learn How To
- Model software and nonsoftware systems using UML 2
- Capture and document user requirements using use cases
- Generate and interpret UML models using the complete diagramming notation
- Use CASE tools to build and manipulate fully featured UML models
- Ensure consistency and accuracy throughout all diagrams
- Represent design patterns in UML
Course Benefits The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is the industry-standard notation for producing the models of a system. In this course, you learn to generate and interpret UML models as applied to a wide range of activities using the significant extensions and enhancements of UML 2. These skills are put into practice using a market-leading CASE tool.
Who Should Attend Designers, programmers, project managers and all other personnel involved in systems development. UML practitioners who wish to update their skills to UML 2 will also benefit. Knowledge of object-oriented techniques is helpful but not required.
Hands-On Training You gain hands-on UML experience using CASE tools. Exercises include:
- Modelling system requirements and business processes with use cases
- Forward- and reverse-engineering between UML models and code
- Representing system structure using class and object diagrams
- Modelling behaviour with interaction, state machine and activity diagrams
- Generating HTML and textual documentation
- Producing interrelated diagrams in a large system model
Course Content Introduction to UML
Speaking a common language
- The importance of modelling
- Enabling concise communication
- The evolution of UML
Elements of UML
- Building blocks: things, relationships and diagrams
- Architectural views: use case, design, implementation, process and deployment
- Levels of detail: visualisation, specification and construction
Object-oriented concepts
- Objects and classes
- Links and relationships
- Inheritance and polymorphism
Modelling the Structure of a System
Specifying classes
- Modelling user-defined types as classes
- Representing information as attributes
- Representing functionality as operations
Identifying relationships between classes
- Dependencies
- Associations
- Aggregation and composition
- Generalisation
Object and class diagrams: the core of UML
- Showing classes and their relationships
- Depicting snapshots using object diagrams
- Defining information models with class diagrams
Modelling the Behaviour of a System
Use case diagrams: describing user requirements
- Representing systems boundaries
- Actors and use cases
- Notations for refinement
Sequence and communication diagrams: depicting typical event scenarios
- Events and signals
- Showing time-ordered behaviour
- Expanding use cases into the developers' view
- Converting between sequence and communication diagrams
Expressing real-time aspects
- Synchronous/asynchronous messages
- Representing timing constraints and transmission delays
- Implementing timing diagrams
Representing State Machines
State machine diagrams: capturing state-dependent behaviour
- States, transitions and events
- Concurrent substates
- History and synch states
Activity diagrams: specifying behavioural logic
- Modelling workflows
- Partitioning activities using swimlanes
- Concurrency and synchronisation of parallel activities
Architectural Modelling
Packages and interfaces
- Distinguishing between classes/interfaces
- Exposing class and package interfaces
- Subscribing to interfaces
Component and deployment diagrams
- Describing dependencies
- Deploying components across threads, processes and processors
- Describing internal structure using composite structure diagrams
Design patterns
- Patterns, mechanisms and frameworks
- Representing design patterns
- Referencing design patterns
Applying UML
Model-Driven Architecture (MDA)
- The Meta-Object Facility (MOF)
- Common Warehouse Meta-model (CWM)
Life cycle stages
- Using UML within the Unified Process
