Object Oriented Analysis and Design — Winter 2025

Define Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD) and explain its significance in modern software development.

Explain Different types of Models in OOAD with its importance.

Analyze the role of generalization in class diagrams and how it is used to represent inheritance relationships between classes.

Explain the difference between a class and an object in Object- Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD), and provide a scenario where both are used.

Define the purpose of following terms with its notations.

state ii) transition iii) event iv) guard condition.

Analyze the role of interfaces in Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD), discussing how they are used to define contracts between classes and promote loose coupling.

Prepare a use case diagram for an online Airline reservation system.

Describe the structure of an activity diagram in Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD), including nodes, edges, and actions.

Discuss the concept of actor-role modeling in use case diagrams and how it is used to represent the roles played by external entities in a system.

Critically examine the concept of special constructs in activity diagrams, such as parallelism and iteration, discussing how they enhance the modeling of complex system behaviors.

Explain the purpose of sequence diagrams in Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD), and provide a scenario where a sequence diagram is used to model system interactions.

Compare and contrast the concepts of synchronous and asynchronous messages in sequence diagrams, providing examples to illustrate their representations.

Explain the purpose of loop and conditional constructs in activity diagrams and how they are used to model repetitive and decision- based behaviors.

Explain the purpose of system conception in the development life cycle and how it lays the foundation for subsequent stages of development.1

Compare and contrast the concepts of domain analysis and application analysis in Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD), providing examples to illustrate their differences.

Define the purpose of following terms with suitable example and UML notations (i) swim lane (ii) use case generalization (iii) activity

Explain the purpose of an overview of analysis in domain analysis and how it provides a high-level understanding of the problem domain.

Compare and contrast the concepts of domain interaction model and application interaction model in Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD), providing examples to illustrate their differences.

Draw an Activity diagram for Hospital Management System with proper notations.

How to breaking a system into subsystems.

Explain the concept of handling boundary conditions in system design and how it helps ensure system robustness and reliability.

Analyze the architecture of an ATM system, discussing its components, interactions, and how object-oriented principles are applied to design its structure and behavior.

Explain how to prepare a reuse plan

Explain the process of organizing a class design, discussing strategies such as grouping related classes into packages and defining clear class interfaces.

Analyze an ATM example in class design, discussing how classes are organized to represent different components and functionalities of the ATM system, and how object-oriented principles are applied to design its class hierarchy and relationships.
