This document discusses object-oriented modeling concepts including classes, objects, class diagrams, relationships between classes like association and aggregation, and how to identify classes during analysis. A class represents a group of objects with common properties and behaviors while an object represents an entity. Class diagrams are used to represent classes, attributes, methods, and relationships. Key relationships include association, aggregation, composition, generalization and dependency. The object model depicts the structural relationships and functional behavior of classes in a system.

- 1. Session 3 Understand and Use Object Oriented Methods
- 2. Review OOAD refers to the development of systems with the base concept of objects and classes UML is a modeling tool used in Information systems Technical systems Embedded systems Distributed systems System software Business Systems SDLC refers to different phases in the software development process
- 3. Objectives Discuss the class diagram and object diagram Represent the relationships between classes Discuss the concept of object Model Identify classes during analysis
- 4. Class and Object Class - A class is a description of a group of objects with common properties (attributes), behavior (Operations), relationships, and semantic Object - An object represents an entity, either physical, conceptual, or software
- 5. Class Diagram-1 Class Object
- 6. Class Diagram-2 Class Names Class Attributes Class Methods Constraints Comment
- 7. Representation of Relationship Multiplicity - Multiplicity defines how many objects participate in a relationship
- 8. Multiplicity & Navigation Student Schedule Navigation Multiplicity 0..* 1
- 9. Aggregation An aggregation is a stronger form of relationship where the relationship is between a whole and its parts Student Schedule Aggregation Whole Part
- 10. Aggregation-Composition Composition is a form of aggregation with strong ownership and coincident lifetimes of the part with the aggregate Student Schedule Aggregation Whole Part
- 11. Aggregation- Dependency A dependency relationship is a weaker form of relationship
- 12. Aggregation-Generalization A specialization/generalization relationship is one, in which objects of the specialized element (the child) are substitutable for objects of the generalized element (the parent) Superclass Subclass
- 13. Association Association is a connection between classes Professor University Professor University Works for Class Association Name Role Names Employer Employee
- 14. Constraints of Association An association may have a name that is placed on, or adjacent to the association path The name of the association should reflect the purpose of the relationship and be a verb phrase; the name of an association can be omitted, particularly if roles names are used. Names like “has” and “contains should be avoided”, as they add no information about what the relationships are between the classes. Each end of an association is a role specifying the face that a class plays in the association (not a constraint). Each role must have a name, and the role names must be unique. The role name should be a noun indicating the associated object’s role in relation to the associating object. The use of association names and role names are mutually exclusive: one should not use both an association name and role name. For each association, it needs to decide as to which conveys more information.

- 19. Inheritance and Generalization-2 The mechanism for sharing attributes and operations using the principle of generalization is referred to as inheritance
