model the users requirements

what the final system must PERFORM.

Output: Conceptual

Model.

Consisting of 2 deliverables:
Requirements Model
Object Model

CT015-3.5-2 Design Methods

Object Oriented Life Cycle

OOA: Requirement Model

The Requirements model has 5
components:
1. Project Scope
2. Context Diagram
3. Use Case Model
4. Interface Descriptions
5. Feasibility study

CT015-3.5-2 Design Methods

Object Oriented Life Cycle

OOA: Requirement Model

Project Scope is a statement of what

our project is to produce.
States in general terms what the system
will do for the users.
Also say what the system will

not do

OOA: Requirement Model

Context diagram defines the boundary

between the system, or part of a system,
and its environment, showing the entities
that interact with it.

CT015-3.5-2 Design Methods

Object Oriented Life Cycle

OOA: Use Case Model

It is a
case of the usage of the system.

CT015-3.5-2 Design Methods

Object Oriented Life Cycle

OOA: Interface Description

GUI
Other I.S. Systems
Real-World systems that we control
Communications interfaces

etc.

CT015-3.5-2 Design Methods

Object Oriented Life Cycle

OOA: Feasibility Study

Can we do this project?

Should we?
Can we make it work?
Is the cost worth it?
etc.

CT015-3.5-2 Design Methods

Object Oriented Life Cycle

Object Oriented Design Phase

Modify Analysis model to reflect
design decisions by mostly adding
information to the existing model.
plan of how the system will do what
the Requirements Analysis asks for.

CT015-3.5-2 Design Methods

Object Oriented Life Cycle

Object Oriented Design Phase

Analysis is what the system must do,
Design is how the system will do it.

CT015-3.5-2 Design Methods

Object Oriented Life Cycle

Construction Phase
Coding and testing.
Should be done with an O-O language or
database.

Deployment and user training.

CT015-3.5-2 Design Methods

Object Oriented Life Cycle

Object Oriented Testing Phase

Complete the unit testing of individual
classes and programs
Then system testing.
Testing must be thorough and
complete.

Maintenance Phase

Bug fixes
Enhancements
Viruses
End-user computing
Backups and restores
Disaster preparedness and recovery
