SOFTWARE DESIGN (SWD392)

CH01 – INTRODUCTION
Software Modeling
Modelling is the designing of SW applications
before coding
• Models are built and analysed prior to the
implementation of the system, and are used
to direct the subsequent implementation.
• A graphical modelling language such as UML
helps in developing, understanding, and
communicating the different views.

OO Methods & the UML
• OO concepts
– Address fundamental issues of software modifiability,
adaptation, and evolution
– Methods based on concepts of information hiding, classes,
and inheritance
• UML ~ Unified Modeling Language (UML)
– Developed to provide a standardized graphical language
and notation for describing object-oriented models.
– UC modeling: functional requirements
– Static modeling: structural view of the system
– Dynamic modeling: behavioral view of the system

Software Architectural Design
• Sometimes referred to as a high-level design
– Describe decomposition of the software system
into subsystems.
– Address software quality attributes
• Starting point for the detailed design and
implementation (decomposition of
subsystems into modules or components).

4/8
Method & Notation
• Software design notation: graphically, textually
• A software design concept is a fundamental idea that can
be applied to designing a system - ie information hiding.
• A software design strategy is an overall plan and direction
for developing a design – i.e OO decomposition
• Software structuring criteria are heuristics or guidelines
used to help a designer in structuring a software system
into its components. i.e: object structuring criteria provide
guidelines for decomposing the system into objects.
• A software design method is a systematic approach that
describes the sequence of steps to follow in order to
create a design, given the software requirements of the
application.

COMET & UML
• The Collaborative Object Modeling and Design
Method, or COMET, uses the UML notation to
describe the design
• UML: a standard modeling language and notation for
describing object-oriented designs

Multiple Views of SW Architecture
• Use case view: use case diagrams
• Static view: class diagrams
• Dynamic interaction view: objects & interaction
messages between them
• Dynamic state machine view: state machine /
state chart diagram
• Structural component view: structured class
diagrams
• Dynamic concurrent view: concurrent
communication diagrams
• Deployment view: deployment diagrams
