Free Mini Course: Applying UML 2.0 with MagicDraw

Why Modeling Is Important?

Modeling is the core of modern software development, and speeds up implementation while elevating quality and user satisfaction.

It applies to all software development activities – from requirements to testing.

Without efficient modeling skills you cannot be successful in today’s software development!

Did You Know?

Software Development magazine Salary Survey 2005 has surveyed over 4000 software developers and managers and has identified that the MOST important skills needed to produce quality projects and products are architecture modeling and design (59% of the staff and 56% of the managers indicated this). The survey ranked this higher than programming, QA, testing, and requirements management. Therefore, don't miss your chance to spend your training budget on the right education!

Application of Modeling Skill Sets

Business Analysts Increase modeling efficiency of

business processes that capture user desires

Perform domain analysis Participate in creating UML and

other standards based models …

Database Designers Design database architecture Introspect existing databases Generate database tables Transform class diagrams to

database schemas …

System Analysts & Architects Apply UML for different

architectural views Transition system models from

business models Manage modeling teamwork …

Developers Define package structure Prepare detailed class models Model interactions Visualize deployment Reverse and visualize code …

A Case Study: Domain Analysis

Perform domain analysis by modeling domain entities and their relationships using simplified class diagram. This diagram will serve as a visual dictionary of concepts. It will also be a starting point for your design-level data model.

With MagicDraw you can generate dictionary in HTML format

Analyze functional requirements by identifying user roles – actors – and associating them to their use cases.

With MagicDraw you can document use cases and generate use case documentation from model.

Model abstract use case implementation by creating activity diagrams visualizing activity flows for primary and secondary use case scenarios.

You can hyperlink use cases to the activity diagrams modeling their scenarios

You can decompose activity diagram elements using hyperlinks to detailed diagrams

Assign activity diagrams as use case primary and secondary scenarios, which includes them in use case documentation

A Case Study: Robustness Analysis

Perform the robustness analysis to identify the major components in layered architecture: user interface boundaries, business logic controls, and data entities.

A Case Study: Package Dependencies

Prepare package dependencies diagram to group your implementation classes in appropriate way. This will help you maintain the code well structured and avoid design flaws such as cyclic dependencies or dependencies on unstable parts.

A Case Study: Interactions

Model component interactions for use case scenarios in order to find out new methods in existing classes or even new classes with specific responsibilities.

A Case Study: Detailed Class Model

Create detailed class diagrams to capture your object-oriented data model. Later you will be able to transform them into executable code – database DDL scripts, XML schemas, Java code, etc.
