Introduction

1. Overview The Unified Modelling Language (UML) is a graphical language for visualising, specifying, constructing, and documenting artefacts of software intensive systems [6]. UML represents the unification of a number of efforts to build notations for expressing models of Object Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD) under the auspices of the Object Management Group (OMG). At present, UML is the de-facto standard for Object Oriented modelling. This document describes the course Object Oriented Analysis and Design with UML taught to the Core and Extended Teams in the context of the e-Macao Project. The course presents the method of Object Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD) using the UML notation. Following the introduction of basic concepts and principles of object orientation, the course shows how informal requirements can be described in details. Considering four views of a typical system - user, static, dynamic and implementation, each of the nine UML diagrams are discussed extensively for modelling these views. For instance, the course describes: (i) use cases for modelling requirements, (ii) class and object diagrams for obtaining good understanding of an application domain and (iii) sequence, collaboration and statechart diagrams for analyzing requirements and specifying architectural and design decisions. In addition, the course teaches the best practices in OOAD based on architectural and design patterns and how UML can be used in the context of the Unified Process (UP). It concludes with a comparative analysis of some popular UML tools. The rest of this document is as follows. Sections 2, 3 and 4 explain respectively the objectives, prerequisites and methodology for teaching the course. The content of the course is introduced in Section 5. The assessment and organization of the course are explained in Sections 6 and 7. Following references, Appendix A includes the complete set of slides and Appendix B contains two sets of assessment questions with answers.

The objectives of the course are as follows: 1) Teaching the basic concepts and principles of Object Orientation including Object Oriented Analysis and Design. 2) Introducing the Syntax, Semantics and Pragmatics of the Unified Modeling Language. 3) Showing how requirements can be described informally and how they are modeled using Use Case Diagrams. 4) Teaching how the structural and behavioral aspects of a system can be analyzed, specified and designed using Class, Interaction and Statechart Diagrams. 5) Showing how implementation and deployment details of a system can be modeled using the Implementation and Deployment Diagrams respectively. 6) Teaching best practices in OOAD based on Architecture and Design patterns. 7) Introducing the Unified Process and showing how UML can be used within the process. 8) Presenting a comparison of the major UML tools for industrial-strength development.

3. Prerequisites This course assumes that the learner possesses the basic knowledge of application development. No prior knowledge of Object Orientation is required.

4. Methodology The course has been designed based on the following didactic principles: Depth versus Breadth - As a foundation, an attempt has been made to cover the various aspects of UML as required in practical applications, without much loss of depth. Academic Orientation A body of concepts is defined rigorously and incrementally to establish a foundation for proper understanding and use of technology. From Definitions to Demonstrations All major concepts introduced during the course are illustrated with small-size examples which are also demonstrated on the computer, whenever possible. From Demonstrations to Assignments On the basis of demonstrations, students are asked to perform different tasks with increasing level of difficulty and independence. Generally, instructors are expected to administer the course material in a tutorial style. Unlike most courses or materials available on UML, this course teaches UML from an application perspective rather than the usual notation perspective.

5. Content

5.1. Introduction

The Introduction section provides information on the aims of the course, the outline of each section, and the schedule for the course as delivered within the context of the e-Macao Project. This part is covered in the slides 1 through 16.

5.2. Object-Orientation This section is covered in the slides 17 through 83. It presents the background, principles and fundamental concepts of Object Orientation: Object, Class, Abstraction, Interface, Implementation, Aggregation, Composition, Generalization, Sub-Class and Polymorphism. The section concludes with the presentation of Object Oriented Analysis and Design.

w .k

The course is organized into six major sections: Object-Orientation, UML Basics, UML Modelling, Unified Process, UML Tools and Summary. The synopses for these sections are presented below. The course starts with an Introduction section, which describes the contents presented in subsequent sections, including the organizational aspect of the course. The course consists of 618 slides divided into six major sections: Introduction, Object Orientation, UML Basics, UML Modelling, Unified Process and UML Tools.

Introduction

5.3. UML Basics The section provides a brief presentation of UML. It starts by explaining what modelling entails and why it is important for software and system engineering. Next, it outlines the basic building blocks of UML: Elements, Relationships and Diagrams. Finally, the section presents five basic modelling views supported by UML: Use Case, Design, Process, Implementation and Deployment. This section is covered in the slides 84 through 151.

5.4. UML Modelling The section constitutes the major part of the course. It presents the nine UML diagrams and how they are applied through the five modelling activities: Requirements, Architecture, Design, Implementation and Deployment. The following sections are devoted to each of these modelling activities.

5.4.1. Requirements

5.4.2. Architecture

5.4.3. Design The section, covered in the slides 404 through 526, starts with an introduction to System and Object Design activities. Next, it presents Design Classes as foundation of the whole development. The steps involved in building Design Class Diagrams are described, from reviewing conceptual classes, to decorating design class attributes with data types, to providing default values and constraints. Furthermore, Activity Diagrams are presented for describing business processes, procedures or algorithms. Sequence and Statechart Diagrams are revisited in the discussion of detailed design of both internal and external behaviours of system objects. The section is concluded with a discussion on Design Patterns.

The section starts by introducing the various concepts related to Architectural Design: SubSystems, Services, Coupling, Cohesion and Layering. Next, it presents Collaborations and how they can be used to model the functional units of a system. Static and dynamic aspects of collaborations are covered as well. Collaboration Diagrams are presented as the major diagram for architecture modelling. Packages are introduced for organizing or modularizing the functional units of a system. The section ends with a discussion of the set of major architectural patterns: Repository, Model-View-Controller, Client-Server, Peer-to-Peer and Pipe-and-Filter. This section is presented in the slides 300 through 403.

This section teaches about requirements in general. It shows how requirements can be described informally and how they can be modelled as Use Cases. In addition, the section presents how the basic concepts and entities of an application domain can be described using Class and Object Diagrams. Furthermore it teaches how Interaction and Statechart Diagrams can be used to specify class and object interactions and their internal behaviours respectively. This Section is covered in the slides 152 through 299.

Introduction

5.4.4. Implementation This section presents Components Diagrams and how they can be used to specify implementation artefacts: Source Code, Executable Releases and Physical Databases. Implementation modelling is covered in the slides 527 through 540.

5.4.5. Deployment This section teaches how Component Diagrams and Nodes can be used to describe the deployment environment of a system. Slides 541 to 554 contain this Section.

5.5. Unified Process The Unified Process (UP) is taught in this section as a process supporting Object Oriented Analysis and Design with UML. The section explains the details of the Unified Process: Core Workflows and Life Cycle Phases. Finally, it shows which UML models are relevant to specific Workflows and Phases of the UP. Slides 555 through 579 contain this Section.

5.6. Tools

This section presents some of the tools for UML modelling: Enterprise Architect, Magic Draw, Poseidon and Rational Rose. The basic features of each tool are presented, as is the comparative analysis of the tools. This Section is presented in the slides 580 through 591.

Assessment comprises 15 multiple-choice questions provided at the end of the course to test the students understanding of the various topics taught. Two sets of assessment questions are given in Appendices B.1 and B.2, with only slight differences between them. The assessment compliments the 55 tasks or assignments provided in the various sections.

7. Organization The course consists of lectures, demonstrations and assignments: lectures The lectures aim to incrementally build a body of concepts to establish the foundation for proper understanding and use of technology. demonstrations - Demonstrations illustrate the concepts introduced during the lectures with running code and small-size examples.

assignments - During assignments, students are asked to perform a range of tasks with increasing level of difficulty and independence. They are encouraged to reuse the demonstrated code and examples in their assignments. The course is designed to be taught for about 42 hours. In the context of the e-Macao Core Team Training, the course was taught over seven days, as follows: (1) Introduction and Object Orientation and UML Basics (2) UML Basics and Requirements, (3) Requirements, (4) Architecture, (5) Design, (6) Implementation and Deployment, and (7) Unified Process, Tools and Summary. For e-Macao Extended Team Training, a shorter version of the same course was taught over four days: (1) Introduction, Object Orientation and UML Basics, (2) Requirements, (3) Architecture and Design, and (4) Design, Implementation, Deployment, Unified Process, UML Tools and Summary.

What Is Modelling?
Modelling involves: 1) representation or simplification of reality 2) providing a blueprint of a system

Why Model?
1) better understand the system we are developing 2) describe the structure or behaviour of the system 3) experiment by exploring multiple solutions

e-Macao-18-1-88

di

a. co
Modelling Principles
1) the choice of models affects how a problem is tackled 2) every model may be expressed at different levels of abstraction 3) effective models are connected to reality

4) furnish abstraction for managing complexity 5) document the design decisions 6) visualize the system as-is and to-be 7) provide a template for constructing a system

What is UML?
UML = Unified Modelling Language A language for visualizing, specifying, constructing and documenting artifacts of software-intensive systems. Examples of artifacts: requirements, architecture, design, source code, test cases, prototypes, etc. UML is suitable for modelling various kinds of systems: 1. enterprise information systems, 2. distributed web-based, 3. real-time embedded system, etc.

4) no single model is sufficient to describe non-trivial systems

Goals of UML

in

History of UML
1) started as a unification of the Booch and Rumbaugh methods - Unified Method v. 0.8 (1995) 2) Jacobson contributes to produce UML 0.9, 1996 3) UML Partners work with three Amigos to propose UML as a standard modelling language to OMG in 1996. 4) UML partners tender their proposal (UML 1.0) to OMG in 1997, and 9 months later submit final UML 1.1. 5) Minor revision is UML 1.4 adopted in May 2001, and the most recent revision is UML 1.5, March 2003. 6) UML 2.0 released by the end 2004.

3) support specifications that are independent of particular programming languages and development processes 4) provide a basis for understanding specification languages 5) encourage the growth of the object tools market 6) supports higher level of development with concepts such as components frameworks or patterns

Actor
Definition Actor is anyone or anything that interacts with the system causing it to respond to events.

w w

An actor: 1) is something or somebody that stimulates the system to react or respond to its request 2) is something we do not have control over 3) represents a coherent set of roles that the external entities to the system can play 4) represents any type of a systems user

Actor Examples

Notes about Actors

1) actors stimulate a system providing input events and/or receive something output from the system 2) actors communicate with a system by sending and receiving messages to/from it, while performing use cases

It is also possible to relate actors using generalizations.

3) actors model anything that needs to interact with the system to exchange information human users, computer systems and others 4) a user may act as one or several actors as it interacts with the system, while several individual users may act as different instances of one and the same actor

Types of Actors
Initiator versus participant: When there is more than one actor in a use case, the one that generates the stimulus is called the initiator and the others are participants. Primary versus secondary: The actor that directly interacts with the system is called the primary actor, others are called secondary actors.

Stereotype Descriptions
Stereotype Thread Process Control An active class which specifies a lightweight flow that can execute concurrently with other threads within the same processes. An active class which specifies a heavyweight flow that can execute concurrently with other processes. A class which owns almost no information about itself. It represents a behaviour rather than resources and directs the behaviour of other objects almost having no behaviour of its own. A class which represents a resource in the real world. It describes its features and their current condition (their state) and preserves its own integrity regardless of where and when it is used. A class whose attributes and operations are all class scoped. That is a class which no instance. A classifier whose objects are all classes. A classifier whose objects are the children of a given parent. A user defined data type that defines a set of values that do not change.

The initial state identifies the state in which an object is created or constructed. The initial state is called a pseudo-state because it does not really have the features of an actual state, but it helps clarify the purpose of another state of the diagram. Notation:

Particular states are initial and final states.

Notation:

e-Macao-18-1-269

Final State

The final state may also mean that the object has actually been destroyed and can no longer be accessed. Notation:

w w

The final state is the state in which once reached, an object can never do a transition to another state.

Definition Event is an occurrence of a stimulus that can trigger a state transition. An event may be: 1) the receipt of a signal, e.g. the reception of an exception 2) the receipt of a call, that is the invocation of an operation, e.g. for changing the expiration date of a license An event on a statechart diagram corresponds to a message on a sequence diagram.

Guard Condition
Typically, an event is received and responded unconditionally. When the receipt of an event is conditional, the test needed is called the guard condition.

The behaviour associated with an event is called action expression:

The response to an event has to explain how to change the attribute values that define the objects state.

Event Syntax
event-name ( [comma-separated-parameters-list] ) [[guard-condition]] / [action-expression] where: 1) event-name - identifies the event 2) parameters-list - data values passed with the event for use by the receiving object in its response to the event 3) guard-condition - determines whether the receiving object should respond to the event 4) action-expression - defines how the receiving object must respond to the event

Event Syntax Example

Example: approveLicense(License.Id) [req=ok] /setExistLicense(true)

e-Macao-18-1-276

in

di

a. co
Notation:

where:

1) approveLicense is the event name 2) License.Id is the event parameter 3) the guard condition specifies that the req attribute must be OK for the receiving object to respond to the event. 4) the action executed in the receiving object is a call to the method setExistLicense which sends true as its parameter

Complex States

Entry Actions
More than one event can trigger a transition of an object into the same state. When the same action takes place in all events that goes into a state, the action may be written once as entry action.

1) use the keyword entry followed by a slash and the actions to be performed every time the state is entered 2) entry actions are part of internal transitions compartment

Internal transitions compartments contains information about actions, activities and internal transitions specific to that state.

e-Macao-18-1-278 e-Macao-18-1-279

88

Exit Actions
The same simplification can be used for actions associated with events that trigger a transition out of a state. They are called exit actions. Notation: 1) use the keyword exit followed by a slash and the actions performed every time the state is exited 2) exit actions are part of the internal transitions compartment Only when the action takes places every time the state is exited.

Entry/Exit Actions Example

Notation:

1) use the do keyword followed by a slash and activities 2) activities are placed in the internal transitions compartment.

w w

Activities may be interrupted because they do not affect the state of the object.

Activities are the processes performed within a state.

.k

Activities 1

in

Activities 2
An activity should be performed: 1) from the time the object enters the state 2) until a) either the object leaves the state or b) the activity finishes. If an event produces a transition out of the activity state, the object must shut down properly and exit the state.

Slides Requirements
e-Macao-18-1-282 e-Macao-18-1-283

89

Internal Transitions
An event that can be handled completely without a change in state is called an internal transition. It also can specify guard conditions and actions. Notation: 1) uses the keyword internal transition followed by a slash and one event action 2) they are placed in the internal transitions compartment

Order of Events
1) if an activity is processed in the current state, interrupt it and finish it properly 2) execute the exit actions

e-Macao-18-1-284

Self Transition

in w w w

Important Features
Within the statechart diagram: 1) an object need not know who sent the message 2) an object is only responsible for how it responds to the event Focusing on the condition of the object and how it responds to the events, which object sends the message becomes irrelevant and the model is simplified The state of the object when it receives an event can affect the objects response event + state = response

A self-transition is an event that is sufficiently significant to interrupt what the object is doing.

It forces the object to exit the current state and return to the same state. The result is to stop any activity within the object, exit the current state and re-enter the state.

Defining Send Events

Sometimes the object modelled by the statechart needs to send a message to another object, in this case the outgoing event must define which is the receiving object. Also, this event must be caught by the receiving object. A message send to another object is called a send event. Notation: provide the object name before the action expression with a period separating both.

Summary 1
A requirement is a function that a system must perform or a desirable characteristic of a system. There are different kinds of requirements such as functional and non-functional requirements. Most project failures can be traced back to errors made in the requirements gathering and specification.

Summary 2
Use cases are descriptions of sets of action sequences that a system performs to deliver observable results. Use cases may be related using generalization, include and extend relationships.

Framework 1
Definition A Framework is a reusable software architecture that provides the generic structure and behaviour for a family of software applications, along with a context that specifies their collaboration and use. Framework: 1) collection of patterns defined as template collaborations with supporting elements. 2) skeletal solution in which specific element must be plugged in order to establish an actual solution. 3) depicted as packages stereotyped with the framework keyword

Framework 2
1) made up of a set of related classes that can be specialized or instantiated to implement an application 2) lack the necessary application specific functionality and therefore not immediately useful

Summary 1
1) Architecture is concerned with the structural organization of system components as well as how they interact to provide the systems overall behaviour or functionality. 2) A collaboration is a society of classes which provides some cooperative behavior that is more than the sum of all its parts. 3) Collaborations have both structural and behavioral aspects. 4) Collaborations may realize a use case or an operation.

Summary 2
5) A collaboration diagram shows interactions organized around the structure of a model, using either classes and associations or instances and links. 6) A component is a physical, replaceable part that conforms to and provides the realization of a set of interfaces. 7) An interface is a collection of operation that are used to specify a service of class or components.

System Design
There are two ways of constructing a software design: one way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies C.A.R. Hoare

What is System Design

Definition System Design is the transformation of analysis models of the problem space into design models (based on the solution space). It involves selecting strategies for building the system e.g. software/hardware platform on which the system will run and the persistent data strategy.

Modelling Composite States

A composite state is simply a state that contains one or more statecharts diagrams. Composite states may contain either: 1) a set of mutually exclusive states: literally like embedding a statechart diagram inside a state 2) a set of concurrent states: different states divided into regions, active at the same time

Concurrent Sub-States
Modelling concurrent substates implies that you have many things ocurring at the same time. To isolate them, the composite state is divided into regions, and each region contains a distinct statechart diagram.

Sub-Machine States
A sub-machine state is a shorthand for referring to an existing statechart diagram. Within a composite state, it is possible to reference to a submachine state in the same way that a class may call a subroutine or a function of another class. The composite state containing the sub-machine is called the containing state machine, and the sub-machine is called the referenced state machine.

The stub state uses a line with the state name placed near the line. Entry points are represented with a line and the name under the line. Exit points are represented with a line and the name over the line.

Access to sub-machines states is through entry and exit points that are specified by stub states.

The containing state icon models the reference to the submachine adding the keyword include followed by a slash plus the name of the submachine state.

History Indicator 1
The history indicator is used to represent the ability for doing backtracking to a previous composite state. Represents a pseudo-state and is a shorthand notation to solve a complex modelling problem. May refer to: 1) shallow history: the object should return to the last sub-state on the top most layer of sub-states 2) deep history: the object needs to return to the exact sub-state from it which left, no matter how many layers down that is

Implementation Phase
At this stage it is necessary to implement the design specified in the design models. It also deals with non-functional requirements and the deployment of the executable modules onto nodes. Two models are developed during this phase: 1) the implementation model describing how the design elements have been implemented in terms of software system 2) the deployment model describing how the implemented software should be deployed on the physical hardware

Implementation Model
The implementation model indicates how various aspects of the design map onto the target language.

Modelling Techniques

Modelling Source Code

1) Component diagrams are used to model the configuration management of source files, which represent work-product components. 2) Modelling procedure: a) identify the set of source code files of interest and model them as components stereotyped as files b) for larger systems, use packages to show groups of source code files c) consider exposing a tagged value to show interest information such as author, version number, etc. d) model the compilation dependencies among these files using dependencies

Iterative and Incremental 1

The design process is based on iterations that address different aspects of the design process. The iterations evolve into the final system (incremental aspect). The process does not try to complete the whole design task in one go. How to do it? 1) plan a little 2) specify, design and implement a little 3) integrate, test and run 4) obtain feedback before next iteration

Iterative and Incremental 2

Technical risks are assessed and prioritized early and are revised during each iteration.
