  1. A Student Guide to Object-Oriented Development Chapter 8 Activity diagrams

  2. Activity diagrams • show the internal flow of control in a process • can be used to model processing at different levels e.g. • high-level workflows in an organization • detail of what happens in a use case • detail of how an operation works

  3. Activity diagrams • can be used to represent • sequence • selection • iteration • can also illustrate where different activities can be carried out in parallel

  4. Modelling a sequence of activities

  5. Notation

  6. Modelling alternative courses of action (1)

  7. Activity Diagram (UML) Decision point Synchronization bar End Task UML and C++ A Practical Guide To Object-Oriented Development

  8. Activity Diagrams Activity diagrams extend statechart diagrams and present a sequence of "activities" and how the execution path progresses from one activity to another. UML and C++ A Practical Guide To Object-Oriented Development

  9. Activity Diagrams Activity diagrams can also present: • decision points: conditions that change the flow of actions • parallel execution paths • objects affected by actions UML and C++ A Practical Guide To Object-Oriented Development
