Course Overview

The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is the language of choice for object-oriented business models, analysis models, and designs. Some analysts, managers, testers, and other individuals must be able to read and comprehend UML diagrams without understanding how to develop those diagrams. Put another way, they must review models and designs, but they are not modelers or developers. This course explains how to interpret basic UML notation. It explains the fundamental concepts and notational conventions for the UML's seven diagrams.

Course Audience: This course is beneficial to individuals who must understand the UML notation. Note that this is not an object-oriented design course and hence is inappropriate for individuals whose goal is to learn how to conduct object-oriented modeling or object-oriented design. Those individuals should take our couse, Object-Oriented Analysis and Design Using the Unified Modeling Language (UML).

Course Duration: Two days.

Course Prerequisites: Attendees should have some exposure to the business or development side of software, but need not have any knowledge of object-oriented concepts or of the UML notation.

Course Outline:

Introduction: A discussion of what the UML is, of some basic object-oriented concepts, and of source references for the UML.

Use Case Diagrams: Actors and use cases. Actor and use case relationships.

Activity Diagrams: The use of activity diagrams to depict the temporal sequencing of activities.

Class Diagrams: Basic concepts and notation for class diagrams. Classes, attributes, and methods. Associations, aggregation, composition, and specialization.

Interaction Diagrams: Collaboration diagrams and sequence diagrams. The relationship of interaction diagrams to scenarios and to class diagrams. Branching, iteration, and object creation and destruction.

Statechart Diagrams: Using a statechart diagram to model the state-based behavior of objects. Composite and parallel states.

Component and Deployment Diagrams: Depicting physical architecture with component diagrams and deployment diagrams.

Concurrency: Introducing concurrency and synchronization requirements in class diagrams and interaction diagrams.

Extension Mechanisms: UML mechanisms for extending the UML notation.
