Teaching object oriented software engineering with UML
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Unified Modelling Language (UML) is a language that helps to visualize, design and document models of software systems. It represents a collection of the best engineering practices that have proven successful in modelling large and complex systems. UML is widely used in designing large and reliable software systems required by banks and other corporate bodies. Students are encouraged to work in groups to learn the terminology, notation and use of UML and by so doing learn the task of communicating with clients and with other members of the project team. This effectively leads to the students’ understanding of main factors associated in the project's success or failure and complexities involved in software development and project management.

Availability evaluation of Software architecture of object oriented Style using coloured Petri nets
Software architecture is one of the most fundamental products in the process of software development in the areas of behavioral or non- behavioral features like availability or transformability change. There are different ways to evaluate software architecture one of which is the creation of application model. An executable model of software architecture is an official description of architectu...
متن کاملAn innovative instructional method for teaching object-oriented modelling
Object-oriented modelling is considered to be complicated to teach and learn in introductory courses in computer science and software engineering. Animated program visualisation can be significantly used to support teaching objectoriented modelling for beginners. However, there is a lack in instructional methods that support such approach. This paper bridges the gap by introducing a new instruc...
