  1. Dynamic Modeling: Defining Classes B.Ramamurthy B.Ramamurthy

  2. Introduction • (User) Requirement Analysis was done using Use Case Model. Result of this phase is a Use Case Diagram(s). • Further analysis involves using the use cases to discover classes and relationship among them. Result of this phase is a class diagram(s). • Next the classes need to be defined: the attributes, the methods and dynamics of the interaction among the classes.Dynamic Model expresses the dynamic behavior of objects of class and the interaction among objects during the execution of a system. • Dynamic Modeling Tools are: Collaboration diagram, state diagram, sequence diagram and activity diagram. B.Ramamurthy

  3. Topics for Discussion • Revisit Weather Station analysis. • Other class diagrams from Lab2. • Class definition. • Interface, Abstract Class, Concrete Class. • Sequence Diagrams: describe how objects interact and communicate with each other. Primary focus here is time. • Collaboration Diagrams: describe how objects interact but the focus is on space. • Activity Diagrams: yet another way of showing interaction but with focus on activities. • Since Sequence, Collaboration, and Activity diagrams all show interaction, you must make a choice as what you want to use in your practice. • State Diagrams: describe which states an object can have during its life cycle, behavior in those states, and along with events that bring about state transitions. • We will study Sequence Diagrams and State Diagrams. B.Ramamurthy

  4. Class Definition • Class name • Class attributes/characteristics/properties/data • Class operations/capabilities/behaviors/methods • Types of methods: • Constructor(s) • Destructor • Service methods • Get/set methods • Utility methods • Predicate methods B.Ramamurthy

  5. Sequence Diagrams • Sequence diagrams illustrate how objects interact with each other. • They focus on message sequences. • Objects interact by sending messages that invoke operations specified by the objects receiving the messages. • Two axes: vertical axes shows time, horizontal access shows objects. B.Ramamurthy

  6. Message Types and Notation (UML) Synchronous Message (call) Asynchronous Message (interrupt) Simple Message (passing of control Flow) Message Return Note: Rational Rose Demo tool provides just one type of arrow head for all the messages. B.Ramamurthy

  7. Components of a Sequence Diagram An object which is an instance of class Manager An object Dan which is an instance of class Manager An Object Dan, the Manager is sending a message to Sue, the Employee to contactClient(); contactClient() is a method of Employee class. B.Ramamurthy

  8. Job Application: Class Diagram B.Ramamurthy

  9. Job Application: Sequence Diagram B.Ramamurthy

  10. State Diagram • Defines the semantics of a class or operations within an object. • Basic components: Initial State, Final State, intermediate state, state transition and associated labels. • All objects have a state which is a result of previous activities performed by the object. B.Ramamurthy
