UML and OO - 5 days
Course Overview
Using the notation of the Unified Modeling Language (UML), this course explains how to analyse and design software systems using the object oriented model.
Beginning from a basic set of requirements, a realistic project is analysed and then a detailled design model is produced. The course covers a wide variety of topics, from Business Process Modelling, Use Case Analysis through to Design Patterns.Objectives

- Be able to analyse software requirements and be able to model the requirements using the notation of the UML
- Be able to transform analysis models into detailled design models
- Understand what the UML is, and what it isn't
- Be able to describe some common software development processes
- Have met all of the major models in the Unified Modelling Language, and be proficient with the main ones
- Have used a popular UML tool extensively
- Understand the reasons for using an Object Oriented Approach
