Software Modelling with UML by Feabhas Ltd

Product Description

This course leads the student through the complexities of modelling software using UML. The emphasis is not on producing an exhaustive – and exhausting – portfolio of UML diagrams. The focus is on understanding the core of software modelling – using multiple different models to describe, understand and ask questions of the software design.

Course Objectives:

• To provide an understanding of Object Oriented software design
  • To show how to model software in a rigorous and systematic manner.
  • To enable attendees to develop their own practical design skills.
  • To teach the UML 2.0 design notation.

Delegates Will Learn:

• The fundamental concepts and terminology of Object Oriented design.
  • The diagrammatic and modelling underpinnings provided by UML for OO development methods.
  • How to apply the design principles in software applications.
  • The basics of an integrated, traceable and consistent approach in the development of software.
  • Where and how CASE tools can be used in the development process.

Pre-requisites:

• Some understanding of technical software development methods and some knowledge of a high-level programming language.

Who Should Attend:

The course is designed for:

• Designers new to the area of software modelling.
• Developers embarking on projects using UML-based techniques for the first time.

Duration:

• Three days.

Course Materials:

• Delegate handbook
• All worked examples and solutions

Course Workshop:
Approximately 50% of the course involves practical application of the techniques. Delegates work in small groups dealing with problems based on real-world systems.

The course specifically does not make use of a CASE tool. From our experience a CASE tool distracts delegates from learning design issues and UML. However, the workshops clearly demonstrate when CASE tools are helpful and when they are not, thus aiding CASE tool selection.
