Object Oriented Analysis and Design with UML and Enterprise Architec

Course Overview
The application of OOA/D techniques has substantial benefits in reducing system development risks and mproving the quality of object-oriented software developments. UML (the Unified Modelling Language) has emerged as the de-facto standard for OO modelling techniques. This this intensive hands-on workshop, you will gain practical experience of the major techniques of UML using the Enterprise Architect cast tool.

What will I learn?

Undertake use case analysis as part of the analysis and specification process for computer systems

Develop and refine sequence diagrams that guarantee the system specified can be implemented using your object model

Develop state models to assist in the specification of systems

Use design patterns to assist your designs

Use packages to structure large systems

Be aware of the elements of technical domain design (e.g. persistence and database interfacing, distribution, user interface, external system interfacing, etc.)

Understand how object models may be implemented directly in OO languages such as C++, Java and VB.

Be able to use Enterprise Architect to model systems with the UML notations.
