Systems Analysis and Design: A Comprehensive Hands-On Introduction

Achieving Future-Proof Software
 
Course: 322   Type: Hands-On Training   Duration: 4 Days
 
 

You Will Learn How To

  • Analyze user requirements and design robust, change-tolerant software using UML
  • Select the right software architecture for your evolving business needs
  • Design a robust core of stored information for new or existing legacy requirements
  • Control complex behavior for effective decision making and user interaction
  • Adopt a development process that ensures robust database and Web-enabled systems
  • Achieve optimum quality systems through UML techniques and supporting CASE tools

Course Benefits

In today's business environment, competitive advantage is achieved through the delivery of fast, responsive software that can adapt to constantly evolving technology and user expectations. Controlling and managing software depends on three critical elements: standards, architecture and process. This comprehensive introduction provides you with the knowledge and skills to contribute effectively to the design of robust, future-proof software systems, especially within Web-enabled environments.

Who Should Attend

Those involved in specifying, designing or purchasing products for database or Web-enabled systems and those who design business intelligence, knowledge management or user interaction software.

Hands-On Training

Exercises and an evolving case study provide experience building "future-proof" software designs and include:
  • Deciding the best migration strategy for legacy systems
  • Establishing behavioral scope with UML use case diagrams
  • Refining information structure for database design
  • Describing control behavior with a UML state chart
  • Detailing control flow with UML activity diagrams
  • Expanding a UML class diagram to show structure of the user interface
  • Incorporating best practice into the software specification

Developing the Behavior Model

Analyzing behavior requirements

  • Scoping business behavior with UML use case diagrams
  • Realizing a use case with a UML activity diagram

Determining best practice for application design

  • Recognizing UML stereotypes: process, boundary and entity
  • Monitoring behavior with UML communication diagrams
  • Defining control using UML state charts
  • Classifying stereotype responsibilities in SOAs

Presenting Component Objects to Users

Object-modeling techniques for analysis

  • Assessing the benefits of an OO approach
  • Mapping out structure at the user interface with detailed UML class diagrams
  • Achieving consistency between UML class and communication diagrams
  • Benefiting from inheritance as a consequence of generalization
  • Delegation arising from aggregation

Benefiting from best practice in component design

  • Extending use case diagrams for user-interface design
  • Generalizing actors and use cases
  • Detailing mandatory reusable functionality with <<include>>
  • Describing optional functionality using <<extend>>
