UOFS Information System Version 0.9 Yaodong Bi Copyright 2009, Yaodong Bi

Software Requirements

Requirements - Steps 1. System definition 2. Identify actors 3. Identify use cases for each actor 4. Define business packages 5. Assign use cases to packages

System Definition  UOFS maintains information about courses, students, and faculty.  Registrar’s office decides what courses to be offered and who the instructor is.  A student can register for and drop courses and view the grades  Faculty file students’ grades for the courses he/she teaches.  All users are required to sign in before using the system.  All users can sign up and edit their account info.

Actors and Use Cases Register Course Student Registrar Faculty Actors Delete UserAdd CourseDelete Course Drop Course View Grade Add Grade Log out Edit Acct Sign in Sign up Shared by All Actors

Three Business Packages  User Account Management –Manage (CRUD) user accounts  Catalog Management –Manage the catalog (add/delete courses)  Grade Management –Manage course registration –Manage grades Packages are determined based on the data each package is responsible for.

Software Design

Design - Steps 1. Each business package to a Java package 2. Each package has an Entity Manager which takes care of business logic. 3. Each entity manager access its entities from DB 4. Each use case has a dispatcher which takes care of presentation logic/flow 5. Each use case has multiple input/output forms which are the user interface.

Package Name Package Notations Dispatchers EntityManager Entity Classes Boundary Classes  Each package contains  Control Classes  An entity manager: responsible for the business logic  A dispatcher for each use case: responsible for presentation logic of the use case. Dispatcher defines interfaces for boundary classes.  Boundary classes for UI  Entity classes: entities that are CRUDed by the package

Detailed Design

Detailed Design - Steps 1. Define System Start home 2. For each actor 1.Define a user home 2.Map all of its use cases to command buttons 3. For each use case 1.Identify all input forms and display 2.Identify user commands on each form 3.Dispatcher as click listener for command buttons 4.Dispatcher controls the interaction to user 4. Design RPC

System Start Home  Display a welcome message and allows the user to log in or sign up  May display other commands readily available to users before they log in  After a user is successfully logged in, its user home is display.  UofsIS System Start Home contains  Sign in use case  Sign up use case  After a user sign in/sign up, his User Home is displayed  Mapped to UofsIS.java

User Homes  Each user has a User Home  The User Home is displayed after the user logs in  The User Home contains all use cases of the user  Each use case is represented as a command, for example, like a button.  When the user selects a command, clicking the button, the user home calls the dispatcher of the use case to start the use case.  The User Home may also contain context data, for example, a shopping cart.  The User Home may be accessed by all the dispatchers of the use cases of the user.

Dispatchers Design  Each dispatcher is associated with a sequence of input forms and displays of the use case  Each form and display may contain widgets.  Those widgets (e.g., buttons) represents user commands in the use case. For example, a Click event on a button may mean the user wants to submit data on the form.  A dispatcher is also the event handler for the possible events generated from the widgets in the use case.  Each button has a title which is used by the dispatcher to determine which button was clicked  When an event is received, the dispatcher determines what should be the response and display it back to the user.

Dispatchers Design: EditAcct Use Case  When the use case starts, EditAcctForm.java is executed to display the current info (by its dispatcher’s begin())  User enters info and then click the Submit button, EditAcctDispatcher.onClick() is called  The onClick() determines Submit was the sender of the event (sender.getTitle() = “Submit”), it calls the UserAcctManager to update the user info in DB using RPC  If info successfully updated, onSucess() of the RPC displays notification in a NotificationWindow.java with a Close button.  EditAcctDispatcher is the ClickListerner of the Close button, so when it is clicked, the dispatcher determined its title is CloseOnSuccess, it terminates the use case by displaying the User Home.  If update failed, onFailure() displays an error message in a NotificationWindow with a Close button  The dispatcher is also the ClickListener this Close button, and its title is CloseOnFailure. It terminates the use case by display the User Home.
