Outline

● Goals

● Model & Modelling

● UML?

● Tools?

● UML Diagrams

● Review

3

Goals

• Equipes IT students with knowledge about

• basic elements and diagrams of the UML

• Helps IT students

• to use the UML elements

• to model and design information systems by UML

• to build software effectively

4

Model?

● A model is a simplified representation of a certain reality.

There can be many different

maps of the same territory,

depending on the purpose:

- riding a bike,

- visiting museums,

- analyzing votes,

- etc.

5

Model?

● Each model captures a certain aspect/view of the system

6

Model?

● A model is focused in one particular aspect of a system:

● A model is not intended to capture all the aspects of a system, but mainly to abstract out only some of these characteristics.

● A system is usually represented by a set of different models, each one capturing some specific aspects.

● Which aspects to capture depends on the purpose of the model.

● A model must not represent the system with absolute preciseness.

● A model is useful because it is a simplified copy.

7

Modelling?

●Modeling is the cost-effective use of something in place of something else for some cognitive purpose. It allows us to use something that is simpler, safer or cheaper than reality instead of reality for some purpose

●Modelling allows us to deal with the world in a simplified manner, avoiding the complexity, danger and irreversibility of reality

8

Modelling?

● The representation relationship

A model should be able to answer a given set of questions in the same way the system would answer these same

questions.

You can ask the map certain questions, but not others.

(+) What is the distance from Madrid to Warsaw?

(-) How many whales are there in the oceans?

9

Modelling?

● A model is a partial analogy of a system

● The analogy between the model and the represented reality is partial.

● The properties of the model are not identical to the properties of the reality.

I can’t smoke with this pipe!

10

Modelling?

● The conformance relationship

● A model is a simplified representation of a certain reality, according to the rules of a certain modeling language

The map conforms to its

legend.

The legend defines the

language to read the map.

11

UML?

● Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a standardized , general-purpose modeling language in the field of software engineering. The UML includes a set of graphic notation techniques to create visual models of object-oriented software-intensive systems.● 1990s: The UML was developed by Grady Booch, Ivar Jacobson

 and James Rumbaugh at Rational Software 

● 1997: It was adopted by the Object Management Group (OMG) and has been managed by this organization ever since

● 2000: The Unified Modeling Language was accepted by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) as industry standard for modeling software-intensive systems

● The current version of the UML is 2.4.1 published by the OMG in August 2011 ( http://www.omg.org/spec/UML/)

UML tools?

● Visual Paradigm for UML (community edition)● http://www.visual-paradigm.com/download/vpuml.jsp?edition=ce

● Modelio (Modeliosoft)

● StarUML (Plastic Software)

● Enterprise Architect (Sparx System)

UML Diagram

Diagram I

Class Diagram

● What is Class?

● Class Diagram Elements

14

Class Diagram

● Description

● A class diagram is a type of static structure diagram. It represents static aspect of a system by showing the its classes (their attributes and operations), interfaces, associations and generalizations

15

Class Diagram elements

● Elements

●Class● A class is a definition of objects that share

given structural or behavioral characteristics. A class comprises a name, a number of attributes, and a number of operations

16

Class Diagram elements

● Elements

●Class● Attribute: An attribute is a typed value

attached to each instance of a class● Operation: An operation is a function that

can be performed by instances of a class. An operation may have return type in case it returns a value
