UML for Industrial Strength Software Development — A 4-day course
Synopsis
This course introduces the UML and its application to modern software development
processes. Participants receive a solid grounding in OO technology and are then
taken through the software development cycle using the UML. There are extensive
exercises and opportunities for discussion. The use of the UML in forming a continuous path from
Requirements Gathering through to Delivery is emphasised, which will help participants deliver
high-quality surprise-free systems.
Course Objectives
Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Explain Object Oriented design and development techniques and terminology
- Describe how the use of the UML for modelling fits with OO technology for software development
- Show how the application of the UML leads to superior products
- Describe Requirements capture and management with Use Cases
- Show how static and dynamic attributes can be modelled in the UML
- Show how Design Tools such as Rational Rose, Design and TogetherSoft work together
with the UML to produce executable code
- Describe the phases and workflows of the unified process and how they are applied with UML
- Show how the UML provides a smooth transition from Requirements to Construction and Transition
Suitable for
- Management wanting to understand the project issues of UML
- Technicians wanting to improve their technical performance
- Senior staff needing to examine the potential of UML for their organisation
- Anyone concerned with Requirements Gathering and Program Design
Prerequisites
- General knowledge of software development process
- Keen to provide more professional IT services
Delivery
A mixture of lectures, demonstrations and group discussions and exercises.
