This initial architecture, along with the mechanisms. This initial architecture, along with the software requirements defined in the Requirements software requirements defined in the Requirements workflow, guides and serves as input to the Use-Case workflow, guides and serves as input to the Use-Case Analysis activity. Analysis activity.  In Use-Case Analysis, we identify the analysis classes In Use-Case Analysis, we identify the analysis classes and define their responsibilities. As the analysis classes and define their responsibilities. As the analysis classes and their responsibilities are defined, we will also note the and their responsibilities are defined, we will also note the usage of any architectural (more specifically, analysis) usage of any architectural (more specifically, analysis) patterns defined in Architectural Analysis. The patterns defined in Architectural Analysis. The architectural layers and their dependencies may affect the architectural layers and their dependencies may affect the allocation of responsibility to the defined analysis classes. allocation of responsibility to the defined analysis classes. 5 Rational Proprietary and Confidential Supplementary Specifications Glossary Use-Case Model Use-Case Analysis Use-Case Modeling Guidelines Use-Case Realization (identified) Use-Case Realization (developed) Design Model Analysis Classes Analysis Model (optional) Use-Case Analysis Overview Software Architecture Document 6 Rational Proprietary and Confidential Requirement Capture and Analysis –Conceptual Model  Conceptual Model Conceptual Model – – Concepts and Classes Concepts and Classes I I mportant and typical activity in object-oriented mportant and typical activity in object-oriented requirement requirement analysis analysis is to is to identify concepts identify concepts related to the requirements related to the requirements and to create a and to create a conceptual model conceptual model of the of the domain domain  Conceptual Model or domain model Conceptual Model or domain model illustrates meaningful (to the modelers) conceptual classes in a illustrates meaningful (to the modelers) conceptual classes in a problem domain problem domain  A A domain model OR conceptual models domain model OR conceptual models is a is a visual visual representation of conceptual classes or real-world objects in representation of conceptual classes or real-world objects in a domain of interest a domain of interest 7 Rational Proprietary and Confidential Requirement Capture and Analysis –Conceptual Model (Cont.)  The aim of this step is to The aim of this step is to decompose the problem in terms of decompose the problem in terms of individual concepts or objects individual concepts or objects  A central distinction between OOA and structured analysis is A central distinction between OOA and structured analysis is decomposition by concepts ( decomposition by concepts ( objects objects ) rather than ) rather than decomposition by decomposition by functions functions 8 Rational Proprietary and Confidential Requirement Capture and Analysis –Conceptual Model (Cont.)
