  29. “9.3.3 CollaboratioA collaboration describes a structure of collaborating elements (roles), each performing a specialized function, which collectively accomplish some desired functionality… Thus, details, such as the identity or precise class of the actual participating instances are suppressed.” UML 2.1: Collaboration BabyUML Collaboration + “9.3.4 CollaborationUse A collaboration use represents the application of the pattern described by a collaboration to a specific situation involving specific classes or instances playingthe roles of the collaboration.” BabyUML Query MVC & DCA - ROOTS 2006

  36. The DCA ComponentData + Communication + Algorithm roleX roleY actA actB actC actD Data structure and objects contained in micro ”database” receive message a DCA Component • Façade Method • creates Collaboration by binding Roles to Member Objectsthrough dynamic Queries. • triggers Communication as message interactionbetween Roles FaçadeMethod FaçadeMethod actD actB actC Algorithmsimplemented as Methodsin Member Objects MVC & DCA - ROOTS 2006

  37. Reduce coupling by enforcing component encapsulation. MVC to separate domain information and presentation Model components hold domain information Tool gives user direct access to information Viewobjects let user see and edit Controller object coordinates views DCA to organize component internal Member Objects Data: Member objects administred by BabyBase that ensured data integrity Conceptual Schema; BabyBase defines universe of discourse. External schemas: BabyBase creates collaborations for the external operations (Internal schema is the Member Object classes). Communication: Maestro methods in Component object triggers Member Object behavior Algorithms: What’s left in the Member Objects. Summary and Conclusion“make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies” • Reduce coupling by enforcing component encapsulation. • MVC to separate domain information and presentation • Model components hold domain information • Tool gives user direct access to information • View objects let user see and edit • Controller object coordinates views • DCA to organize component internal Member Objects • Data: Member objects administred by BabyBase that ensured data integrity • Conceptual Schema; BabyBase defines universe of discourse. • External schemas: BabyBase creates collaborations for the external operations • (Internal schema is the Member Object classes). • Communication: Maestro methods in Component object triggers Member Object behavior • Algorithms: What’s left in the Member Objects.
