Deck 9: Software Engineering and Modeling

Question 1

What are the benefits of using analysis patterns during the analysis modeling process?

Answer 1

Patterns suggest solutions (a class,a function,or a behavior)that can be reused when modeling future applications.Analysis patterns can speed up the development of abstract analysis models by utilizing reusable models.Facilitate the transformation of the analysis model into a design model by suggesting design patterns and reliable solutions to common patterns.

Question 2

Describe the key elements of construction practice.

Answer 2

Construction practice is made up of the coding and testing tasks that lead to the delivery of operational software to the customer or end-user.Coding is concerned with the selection of the programming languages,tools,standards,and environments needed to implement the design.Testing involves validation of individual components,verifying the successful integration of components into the system,and acceptance of the completed system by the customer.

Question 3

What types of nouns resulting from a grammatical parse should be considered as potential analysis classes?

Answer 3

-External entities (systems,devices,people)
-Things (e.g.reports,displays,letters,signals)
-Events occurring during system operation
-Roles (e.g.manager,engineer,salesperson)
-Organizational units (e.g.division,group,team)
-Places
-Structures (e.g.sensors,vehicles,computers)

Question 4

What are the six steps for requirements engineering?

Question 5

List three types of classes that may be present in the analysis model.

Question 6

Describe the purposes of domain analysis.

Question 7

Which UML (unified modeling language)diagrams are useful in scenario-based modeling?

Question 8

Describe the roles of the three sections of CRC (class responsibility collaborator)cards?

Question 9

List the representations needed for requirements and design models?

Question 10

What is the difference between a customer and an end-user?

Question 11

How should analysis Describe the contents of the WebApp content,functional,interaction,
and configuration models.

Question 12

What are the steps needed to build a behavioral model?

Question 13

What questions should be asked to help refine a preliminary use case?

Question 14

Describe the job of the requirements engineer with respect to stakeholder collaboration?

Question 15

How should analysis patterns be documented once they are discovered?
