Business Modeling and Analysis with UML
Business objects define the vocabulary of a business domain. Business objects model the business and combined with use cases are a powerful way to concisely capture and communicate requirements. The business object model provides insight and clarity to business people while being a cornerstone for developing component-based software architecture and sound database design. Business Objects are modeled using standard UML Class Diagram notation.
This workshop provides your project team with a common language and a set of practical business object modeling analysis skills. You will learn how to identify objects, define attributes, associations, and roles and learn how to apply these concepts to help you understand and model your business. The workshop will introduce you to industry standard analysis object modeling patterns that will speed up your analysis process, and deliver semantically rich flexible models.
- Model object behavior during analysis and use sequence or collaboration diagrams to illustrate this behavior
- During analysis, treat objects as static business entities, and postpone modeling object behavior until design.
We can help you decide which approach works better for your environment. We can also easily customize this workshop to accommodate either of these approaches and incorporate the concepts and principles of business object modeling to your in-house methodology.
