Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Requirement Specification A formal process that seeks to understand the problem and document in detail what the software system needs to do. This phase involves close interaction between users and designers. Most of the examples in COS240 are simple, and their requirements are clearly stated. In the real world, however, problems are not well defined. You need to study a problem carefully to identify its requirements.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved System Analysis Seeks to analyze the business process in terms of data flow, and to identify the system’s input and output. Part of the analysis entails modeling the system’s behavior. The model is intended to capture the essential elements of the system and to define services to the system.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved System Design The process of designing the system’s components. This phase involves the use of many levels of abstraction to decompose the problem into manageable components, identify classes and interfaces, and establish relationships among the classes and interfaces.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Implementation The process of translating the system design into programs. Separate programs are written for each component and put to work together. This phase requires the use of a programming language like Java or C#. The implementation involves coding, testing, and debugging.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Testing Ensures that the code meets the requirements specification and weeds out bugs. An independent team of software engineers not involved in the design and implementation of the project usually conducts such testing.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Deployment Deployment makes the project available for use. For a Java applet, this means installing it on a Web server; for a Java application, installing it on the client's computer.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Maintenance Maintenance is concerned with changing and improving the product. A software product must continue to perform and improve in a changing environment. This requires periodic upgrades of the product to fix newly discovered bugs and incorporate changes.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Discovering Classes One popular way for facilitating the discovery process is by creating CRC cards. CRC stands for classes, responsibilities, and collaborators. Use an index card for each class, as shown in the Figure below.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Association Association represents a general binary relationship that describes an activity between two classes. Association illustrated using a solid line btw two classes. Examples: This is pure naked illustration. No labels, no directions, no multiplicity, no roles See next slide – the same association illustrated in more informative way.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Association Association represents a general binary relationship that describes an activity between two classes. Example 1: “Student taking a course” is an association btw the Student class and the Course class.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Association Association represents a general binary relationship that describes an activity between two classes. Example 2: “Faculty member teaching a course” is an association btw the Faculty class and the Course class.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Association (Label) Association represents a general binary relationship that describes an activity between two classes. Association illustrated using: An optional label to describe the relationship. E.g. label Take for Example 1 E.g. label Teach for Example 2

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Association (Direction) Association represents a general binary relationship that describes an activity between two classes. Association illustrated using: An optional small black triangle to indicate the relationship direction. Student takes a course as opposed to Course taking a student Or Faculty teaches a course as opposed to Course teaching faculty.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Association (Role) Association illustrated using: F Each class involved in the relationship may have a role name that describes the role played by the class in the relationship. The role name for Faculty class is: Teacher

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Association (Multiplicity) Association illustrated using: F Each class involved in association may specify a multiplicity, i.e. number or range interval to specify how many objects of the class are involved in the relation. * Means unlimited number of objects; + means 1 or more; m..n means a range Each student may take any number of courses (*). Each course must have at least 5 and at most 60 students (5..60). Each course is taught by one only faculty (1). Each faculty may teach from 0 to 3 courses per semester (0..3).

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Association An association is usually represented as a data field in the class.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Translation is not Unique NOTE: If you don’t need to know the courses a student takes or a faculty teaches, the data field courseList in Student or courseList in Faculty can be omitted.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Association Btw Same Class Association may exist between objects of the same class. For example, a person may have a supervisor. public class Person { // data fields omitted private Person supervisor; // constructor(s) omitted // method(s) omitted }

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Association Between Same Class If a person may have several supervisors, you may use an array to store supervisors. public class Person { // data fields omitted private Person[] supervisors; // constructor(s) omitted // method(s) omitted }

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Aggregation and Composition

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Aggregation and Composition Aggregation is a special form of association, which represents an ownership relationship between two classes. Aggregation models the has-a relationship. An object may be owned by several other aggregated objects. If an object is exclusively owned by an aggregated object, the relationship between the object and its aggregated object is referred to as composition.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Aggregation and Composition Aggregation illustrated: an empty diamond attached to the aggregated object. “a person has an address” is an aggregation btw Person class and Address class, since the address may be shared by several persons. Composition illustrated: a filled diamond attached to the aggregated object. “a person has a name” is a composition btw Person class and Name class, since a name is strictly owned by a person

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Representing Aggregation in Classes An aggregation relationship is usually represented as a data field in the aggregated class.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Inner Classes Translation If Name or Address is used in the Person class only, they can be declared as an inner class in Person. For example, public class Person { private Name name; private Address address;... class Name {... } class Address {... }

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Dependency A dependency describes a relationship between two classes where one (called client) uses the other (called supplier). In UML, draw a dashed line with an arrow from the client class to the supplier class. For example, the ArrayList class uses Object because you can add objects to an ArrayList. The relationship between ArrayList and Object and the relationship between Calendar and Date can be described using dependency, as shown in Figures below.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Dependency vs. Association F Both association and dependency describe one class as depending on another. F Association is stronger than dependency. F In association, the state of the object changes when its associated object changes. F In dependency, the client object and the supplier object are loosely coupled. F The association relationship is implemented using data fields and methods. There is a strong connection between two classes. F The dependency relationship is implemented using methods.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Coupling Dependency, association, aggregation, and composition all describe coupling relationships between two classes. The difference is the degree of coupling with composition being the strongest, followed by aggregation, association, and dependency in this order.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Inheritance Inheritance models is-a or is-a-kind-of or is-an-extension-of relationship between two classes. Inheritance classified: Strong is-a relationship describes direct inheritance btw two classes. Weak is-a relationship describes that a class has certain properties.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Strong Inheritance Relationship Strong is-a relationship can be represented using class inheritance. For example, see below the relation “a faculty member is a person”

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Eighth Edition, (c) 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Weak Inheritance Relationship A weak is-an-extension-of relationship can be represented using interfaces. For example, the weak is-an-extension-of relationship “students are comparable based on their grades” can be represented by implementing the Comparable interface, as follows:
