Week 4 Assignment: Interaction Models
Purpose
The purpose of this assignment is to continue our ITOT Case Study modeling by creating an SSD (System Sequence Diagram) and a Detailed Sequence Diagram.
You will add an SSD (System Sequence Diagram) and a Detailed Sequence Diagram based on your detailed use case for Manage Shopping Cart. You will also need to refer to your class diagram and activity diagram or detailed use case steps. This will complete the Analysis Specification for the IT Online Training Case Study. See the list of Resources at the end of this assignment for details on the two types of sequence diagrams and activity diagram.
Course Objective(s)
CO4: Explain the software development process including system conception, domain analysis, and application analysis and their respective models.
CO9: Apply your knowledge of object oriented and UML concepts by designing and developing UML models.
In this assignment, you will complete the following sections in your Analysis Specification
Sections 6, 6.1, 6.2
Instructions
1. Review the resources listed in the Quick Resources below on Sequence and Activity diagrams.
2. Create a UML compliant SSD (System Sequence Diagram) based on your detailed use case, “Manage Shopping Cart”. The SSD shows only two objects–the Actor and the System and the messages between them.
2.1 Use your CASE tool to create the UML compliant SSD and add it to Section 6.1 of your Analysis Specification from Week 3. Also add a discussion of your SSD.
3. Create a UML compliant Detailed Sequence Diagram based on your detailed use case, “Manage Shopping Cart”. The Detailed Sequence Diagram shows Actors and all Objects involved in the detailed use case. Remember that Objects are instances of Classes.
3.1 Use your CASE tool to create the Detailed Sequence Diagram based on your detailed use case and add it to Section 6.2 of your Analysis Specification from Week 3. Add a discussion of your Detailed Sequence Diagram. Remember that the Detailed Sequence Diagram adds the actual objects required to the sequence diagram instead of just :System.
4. Complete Section 6 of your Analysis Specification and make any corrections you need to other models.
Submission Instructions
1. Submit your updated Analysis Specification as a Word file.
2. When you submit your Word file, use your name as part of the file name, e.g., ENTD278Assignment4_FirstNameLastName and make certain that your name and course number are at the top of the file.
Your assignment will be graded with the following rubric:
- Completion of a UML compliant System Sequence Diagram (SSD) and add it to Section 6.1 (40 points)
- KCompletion of the discussion of the SSD in Section 6.1 (5 points)
- Completion of a UML compliant Detailed Sequence Diagram for the use case ManageShopping Cart, showing all actors and objects, and add it to Section 6.2 (40 points.
- Completion of Section 6and other updates to other models (5 points)
- Sources/formatting: Use APA 7th edition style formatting and correct grammar (10 points)
Former Student Shared:
“For students enrolling in this course for the first time, I would recommend supplementing the course materials with additional practice. Working on small coding exercises or projects related to the topics covered each week can deepen understanding. Additionally, engaging with online communities or forums can provide opportunities for discussion and collaboration.”
