Objectives • Develop the skill sets needed to empower you to take a business problem from “concept” to “code” • Learn the tools and techniques that will enable you to transform a business problem to a managed solution.
You will learn • The Unified Modeling Language • How to leverage modeling tools such as Rational Rose and others to document business requirements • Business process analysis and design techniques
The Steps • How to analyze and formalize user requirements Activity modeling Object modeling Use cases Sequence diagrams • Map the business definition to a high level software architecture • Map the high level software architecture to a detailed design • Develop a quality assurance/testing strategy
The Project • Analyze and design a software solution to a real-world business problem. • Work part of a team of three people and divide the work accordingly. • You are required to submit progress reports every 2 weeks.
The Deliverables • A formal presentation describing your solution • A detailed report outlining your solution. • You will be graded on the correctness and completeness of your solution. Completeness here means a team of software engineers should be able to program your design quickly without your help .
The Grading • A midterm exam will account for %25 of your grade • A final exam will account for the remaining %25 of your grade. • Homework problems %20 • The project work will account for 30% of your grade
