OOAD (Object-Oriented Analysis and Design)
 with UML (Unified Modeling Language)

Duration:   4 days

Participants:   Application developers, business system analysts, and systems designers.

Objectives:   Upon successful completion of this course you will be able to: -  Use OOAD techniques to analyze raw data and design applications. -  Use UML to graphically model an OO diagram. -  Learn what UML (Unified Modeling Language) is and is not. -  Apply UML to a variety of common modeling problems. -  Be able to choose from the many UML diagrams which are appropriate for a particular situation.

Overview:   -  OOAD is the process of identifying the requirements of a software application and laying out the specifications in one of a variety of models of which UML is a popularly used model in today's industry. -  This course teaches you how to use OOAD to analyze subject matter and identify its components and relationships and to express and model them with UML (Unified Modeling Language).

Prerequisites:   Programming experience, especially some experience with an OO language such as Java or C++.

Format:   Lecture and discussion with hands-on exercises.

Setup:   Rational Rose or Microsoft Visio is recommended but not required.
