Course Description
Object-oriented design concepts, Introducing OO concepts through typical OO
programming languages. Features and problems of complex systems, evolution
the object-oriented model, foundations and elements of the object-oriented model,
classes and objects, relationships among classes, relationships among objects,
interplay of classes and objects, approaches to identifying classes and objects,
object-oriented design methodologies, methodology notation (elements of UML
or any other selected notation, class and object diagrams, interaction diagrams,
state transition diagrams, process and module diagrams, etc.), applications and
case studies, CASE tools.

Course Outcomes
After completing this course the student must demonstrate the knowledge and
ability to:
 Show the importance of systems analysis and design in solving complex
problems.
 Show how the object-oriented approach differs from the traditional approach
to systems analysis and design.
 Explain the importance of modeling and how the Unified Modeling Language
(UML) represents an object-oriented system using a number of modeling
views.
 Construct various UML models (including use case diagrams, class diagrams,
interaction diagrams, state chart diagrams, activity diagrams, an
implementation diagrams) using the appropriate notation.
 Recognize the difference between various object relationships: inheritance,
association, whole-part, and dependency relationships.
 Show the role and function of each UML model in developing object-oriented
software.
 Apply the Rational Software Suit for the construction of UML models and
expressing the appropriate notation associated with each model.
Assessment Strategy:
Students will be assessed in this course based on a set of exams, quizzes and
