Design Pattern - Overview

Course overview

Anyone who deals with UML can hardly get around class diagrams. They are a popular tool in software modeling and probably the most widely used UML diagram. You can model classes and relations between your classes to gradually build up complete software systems. Class diagrams help you communicate your modeling approaches and present your software to your clients. They are a great tool to talk about software and what needs to be done to fulfill given requirements.

You will:

• LEARN the syntax and semantics of UML class diagrams (i.e. classes, relations and more).
• UNDERSTAND foreign and complex class diagrams.
• MODEL software requirements with UML class diagrams.
• USE design patterns to further enhance your class diagrams.
• PRESENT your own class diagrams to colleagues and clients.
• TRANSLATE software requirements into class diagrams.
• IMPLEMENT software (e.g. with Java) based on a given class diagram.

TUTOR ASSISTANCE: Every student in this online video course can easily ask questions on the video course material via e-mail. You can also send results, i.e. your own class diagrams, and get useful feedback on what you may need to improve and what is already looking great in your UML class diagram!
