Uml With Examples

This document provides an example of using the Unified Modeling Language (UML) to model an elevator control system. It includes UML diagrams like use case, class, sequence, and state diagrams to analyze and design the system. The example goes through modeling the requirements, structure, behavior, and implementation details to demonstrate applying UML in a real software development project.

0. Introduction
The aim of this tutorial is to show how to use UML in "real" software development environment.

1. Elevator Problem
A product is to be installed to control elevators in a building with m floors. The problem concerns
the logic required to move elevators between floors according to the following constraints:
{

Each elevator has a set of m buttons, one for each floor. These illuminate when pressed and
cause the elevator to visit the corresponding floor. The illumination is canceled when the
elevator visits the corresponding floor.
Each floor, except the first floor and top floor has two buttons, one to request and upelevator and one to request a down-elevator. These buttons illuminate when pressed. The
illumination is canceled when an elevator visits the floor and then moves in the desired
direction.
When an elevator has no requests, it remains at its current floor with its doors closed.

2. Unified Modeling Language


UML is a modeling language that only specifies semantics and notation but no process is currently
defined. Thus, we decided to do the analysis as follows;

Use case description:
A generalized description of how a system will be used.
Provides an overview of the intended functionality of the system.
{ Understandable by laymen as well as professionals.

Passenger pressed floor button


Elevator system detects floor button pressed
Elevator moves to the floor
Elevator doors open
Passenger gets in and presses elevator button
Elevator doors closes
Elevator moves to required floor
Elevator doors open
Passenger gets out
Elevator doors closes

3.2. Class Diagram


Class diagrams show the static structure of the object, their internal structure, and their
relationships.

3.3. State diagram


A state diagram shows the sequences of states an object goes through during it's life cycle in
response to stimuli, together with its responses and actions.

4. Design
The design phase should produce the detailed class diagrams, collaboration diagrams, sequence
diagrams, state diagrams, and activity diagram. However, the elevator problem is too simple for an
activity diagram. Thus, we are not using an activity diagram for the elevator problem.

4.1. Sequence Diagram


A sequence diagram and collaboration diagram conveys similar information but expressed in
different ways. A Sequence diagram shows the explicit sequence of messages suitable for
modeling a real-time system, whereas a collobration diagram shows the relationships between
objects.
