How Are The Diagrams Divided?

Diagrams are graphical representations of elements and relationships, used by analysts to model systems similarly to how architects use diagrams to model buildings. There are nine main types of modeling diagrams divided into static and dynamic categories. Models are engineering techniques that build simplified representations of reality, allowing simulations for learning without building the actual system. Models are important as they [1] simplify complex systems, [2] specify structure and behavior, and [3] help visualize, document, and construct systems.

5. (a) Write difference between model and diagram?

    [3M]

Ans: What are diagrams?

Diagrams are graphical representation of a set of elements most often shown made of things and
associations.

Analysts and designers use diagrams to build models of systems in the same Way as architects
use diagrams to model buildings.

These diagrammatical models are helpful

- To communicate ideas.

- To generate new ideas and possibilities.

- To test ideas and more predictions.

- To understand structures and relationships.

Modeling diagrams that are commonly used are, there are 9 of them.

- Use case diagram,

- Class Diagram,

- Object Diagram,

- Sequence Diagram,

- statechart Diagram,

- Collaboration Diagram,

- Activity Diagram,

- Component diagram,

- Deployment Diagram.

How are the diagrams divided?

The nine diagrams are divided into static diagrams and dynamic diagrams.

1. Static Diagrams (Also called Structural Diagram):


Class diagram, Object diagram, Component Diagram, Deployment diagram.

2.Dynamic Diagrams (Also called Behavioral Diagrams):

Use Case Diagram, Sequence Diagram, Collaboration Diagram, Activity diagram, Statechart
diagram

Modeling:.Modeling is a proven and well-accepted engineering technique which helps build a


model.

- A model is a quicker and easier to build.

- A model can be used in simulations to learn more about things in representation.

- A model gives clear understanding of a problem.

- A model is an abstraction ,mean we can choose which are to be represented, and which are
to be suppressed.

- A model can represent real or imaginary things from any domain.

- A useful model has just the right amount of detail and structure.

5 (b) Describe the importance of Modeling.   [3M]

1. Model is a simplification of reality;


2. it is a blueprint of the actual system that needs to be built.

3. Model helps to visualize the system.

4. Model helps to specify the structural and behavior of the system.

5. Model helps make.

6. Model helps document the system. templates for constructing the system
