This document contains questions about system modeling and UML diagrams. It discusses perspectives for modeling systems like structural and behavioral. It describes UML diagram types like use case, activity, and sequence diagrams. Context models show what is outside a system boundary. Activity diagrams can describe business processes. Use case descriptions include actors, interactions, data exchange, and system responses. Sequence diagrams illustrate interactions. Generalization simplifies models by defining common attributes in super classes. Event-driven modeling assumes systems transition between discrete states from internal or external events. Benefits of model-driven engineering include abstraction, reduced errors, and automatic implementation generation. The MDA method recommends computation independent, platform independent, and platform specific models.

Chapter 5: System modeling

Your name: Lê Tấn Đạt

Answer all questions. 1 mark per question

1. What perspectives may be used for system modelling?


+An external perspective
+An interaction perspective
+A behavioral perspective
+A structural perspective

2. What UML diagram types may be used to represent the essential features of
a system?
+Activity diagrams
+Use case diagrams
+Sequence diagrams
+Class diagrams
+State diagrams

3. What is described in a context model?

The immediate external environment of the system defining the system's


context and the dependencies that a system has on its environment. The
context model shows what is outside of the system boundary.

4. How are activity diagrams used in describing the context of use of a system?
Activity diagrams may be used to describe the business processes in which
the system is used and the other systems which are also used in these
processes
5. What are the principal components of a textual use-case description?
The actors involved...

+A description of the interactions


+The data that is exchanged
+The stimulus that triggers the use case
+The response of the system
+Comments and other information

6. What is illustrated in a UML sequence diagram?

A sequence of interactions between the actors in a system's environment and


the objects in the system itself. The sequence of interactions describes the
implementation of a system feature or function.

7. How is generalization used to simplify the models of a system with many


similar objects?

Assuming that the similar objects have attributes and methods in common,
these common attributes and methods are associated with a 'super-class'
which generalizes all of the objects sharing these attributes/methods. The
specific object classes only declare the attributes/methods specific to that
class and they inherit the general attributes/methods from the super-class.

8. What is the basic assumption that underlies event-driven modelling?

That the system can be represented as a model with a finite number of


discrete states and external and internal events trigger a transition from one
state to another.

9. What are the claimed benefits of model-driven engineering?


+Engineers can work at a high level of abstraction without concern for
implementation details.
+Errors are reduced and the design and implementation process is speeded
up.
+By using powerful generation tools, implementations of the same system
can be automatically generated for different platforms.

10. What are the three types of abstract system model that are recommended by
the MDA method?

+A computation independent model (CIM)


+A platform-independent model (PIM)
+One or more platform-specific models (PSMs)
