IBM RATIONAL LAB SOFTWARE.

Using the UML approach to coding design patterns, the parts of a design pattern are its classes diagram,

.its scenario, and its sequence diagram or interaction diagram.

STII-133 LAB TIMES.

In addition to the IBM Rational Rose WINDOWS version 2004 software in STI-124-128 and STII-133-137 and subset of version 4.0 from the CD in the back of the UML Toolkit paperback from the textbooks section of the GMU Bookstore in the Johnson Center, you can down load to your own PC WINDOWS term-limited copies of full commercial version of Rational Rose Enterprise 2004 Edition and other interesting tools by going to http://www.rational.com/

DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING IBM RATIONAL ROSE (UML 2.0)

After the semester starts up, you will be asked to download a full commercial WINDOWS version of IBM Rational Rose 2004 from http://www.rational.com/ and then use its Key Administrator tool to activate IBM Rational Rose 2004 by use of the Key and Account numbers distributed in your class through the following URL

https://licensing.rational.com/accountlink/transactionType.

You will use this WINDOWS version of Rational Rose (UML programming environment) to do your class project.

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

GRADING POLICY:

A midterm examination and a final examination each count 1/3 of the class grade on a 100 point scale; and grading is proficiency-based, no curve. The project and associated lab work comprise the remaining 1/3 of the class grade. Students must hand in all project-related work that is requested to be turned in, but students may work on homework and lab work in their project team groups. It is understood that the project is a major time commitment, and students must work in their groups, taking advantage of communications technology when appropriate.Students in the Ph.D. Program can replace the midterm with a written and orally presented research paper; see the professor at the beginning of the class term if you wish to take this option.

GRADE SCORE:

Score = (1/3)*MidTerm + (1/3)*Final + (1/3)*Project

The fall-04 Finals schedule is at the link

EXAMS AND PROJECTS

IT822 (both Sections, for those not doing the research paper option) Midterm Exam is October 14, 4:30 - 7:17pm in the GMU campus classroom.

IT822 Projects and Final Written Research Projects are due December 16, 4:30 - 7:17pm in the GMU campus classroom

Required IT822 Oral PowerPoint Presentations will be given during the last of the course 4:30 - 7:17pm in the GMU campus classroom.

IT822 (both Sections) Final Exam is December 16, 4:30 - 7:17pm in the GMU campus classroom.

SYLLABUS CONTENT OUTLINE

1. Principles of Design and Modeling

2. Introduction to Design Patterns: Principles and Examples

3. Design Patterns in Designing Computer Systems and Applications

4. Programming Design Patterns in UML and Abstract Java

5. Advanced Topics in Design Patterns.

HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS DUE

Thursdays OCTOBER - Study the Lecture Notes from SEPTEMBER and then DO THE FOLLOWING:

ASSIGNMENT IN THE GAMMA TEXTBOOK

Chapters/Exercises.

A. Study pp. 137-138 on Structural Design Patterns, Chapter 4. Study IN DETAIL

Proxy Design Pattern, pp. 207-217

Facade Design Pattern, pp. 185-193

Composite Design Pattern, pp. 163-173.

B. Study pp. 221-222 on Behavioral Design Patterns, Chapter 5. Study IN DETAIL Observer Design Pattern,

pp. 293 - 303.

C. Code the above four design patterns in UML (Rational Rose), including each one's static

design structure as CLASS DIAGRAM, and dynamic design structure as SEQUENCE DIAGRAM.

Store each coded design pattern in its own, separate EXPORTED PTL file package for later reuse.

Begin to work on how you would automatically IMPORT each one of the above PTL packaged design

patterns into its best designed position in the sequence of actor, interface, boundary, control and entity

classes. For example, where would a proxy design pattern usually be inserted? Where would an observer

design pattern usually be inserted? Where would a facade design pattern usually be inserted?

D. As HOMEWORK, hand in the results of your UML coding in part C. above.

UML (Unified Modeling Language): Currently UML 2.0

UML (Unified Modeling Language) is the defacto industry standard for developing Object-oriented software. UML has been certified by the international certifying organization Object Management Group (OMG) whose web page is http://www.omg.org/UML is evolving (UML 2) into the standard world-wide notation for presenting object-oriented modeling and design. For those who can afford to do so I would also recommend the very latest 'The Unified Modeling Language Reference Manual, Second Edition,' by Rumbaugh et. al., Covers UML 2.0, Has a CD ROM, Addison-Wesley, 2004-2005.
