Coursework 1: System Design
Use Case Diagram and documentation
List of functional requirements
The function requirements of the Icon College has been listed below:
 Firstly, it is to be noted that the organization is looking to expand and hence the
information system should be able to assist the growth for the organization.
 The system should be able to provide the admin with the ability to record, search, and
update and delete the information related to the staffs in the organizations.
 The system should provide the tutors to mark the student attendance properly.
 Virtual Learning environment: A VIL named the Moodle should be used by the
tutors in the organization. The system would be used by the tutors for the marking and
grading of the papers which are sub mitted online in the system. The system should be
able to provide the tutors with the facility to record the grades in to the system. The
grades would be then stored automatically in to the information system.
 The grades recorded in the information system would be made available to the
administrator, which would not be available to them for updating the records.
 The system should be able to enrol the student into the college and they would also be
able to track the attendance.
 The system should provide the student with the option to enrol themselves into the
courses and the record would be stored in to the system.
 The system should provide the options to store the lecture notes into the system. In
addition to this, the students would be able to download the homework materials and
exercises that would be completed by the students online.

SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
 Notification system: The system should be able to notify the students automatically
when their grades are ready. This would help the students to view their grades
automatically. In addition to this, the system should be able to provide the students
with the warning mails if they do not submit their submit their assignments on the
system in time. The notification system should also be able to send notifications to the
admin about dispelling a particular student from a particular coursework.
 Triggering functions: The system should be to provide the organization with the
triggering that would prohibit the students from appearing in the courses and
accessing the system if they do not pass the modules in any of the semesters.
 Log in facilities: The system should be able to record the user details and the
passwords into the system and validate the username and passwords with the ones
recorded in the system.
Use Case
The use case diagram is one of the very effective procedure to model the information
system for the Icon College. A use case is a scenario by which a user case use the system. A
system can have multiple such use cases. Use cases are textual artifacts and pictorially it is
represented by use case diagram. There are two components in a use case diagram that is
actors and use cases. The actors in the use diagram are the ones which performs the actions
and the use cases are the functions in the model which is being performed by the actors in the
systems.

SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
The above use case diagram has been modelled for the ICIM system. The main actors
identified in the systems are Tutor, Admin, Student and staffs. The four have different roles
and the roles of the actors for the system are described in the system effectively.

SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
Description of the Conceptual Classes and Main attributes
The class diagram is used for the description of the classes that are to be used in the
system and the object of these classes are to be used in the system. The class diagram also
represents the attributes which are being used in the system. The description of the
conceptual class is provided here for the diagram that is provided above, the concept and the
attributes of the system that is designed for the organization has been provided here. The
main entities identified for the system are Tutor, Administrator, Student, Assignments,
Grading and Marking. The main attributes of the Tutor are TutorID and TutorName, the main
attributes of the Administrator are AdminID AdminName. The student entity consists of the
attributes the StudentID and StudentName. In addition to this, Subjects have the attribute
SubjectID and SubjectName. In addition, the gradingID and the MarkingID has been main
attributes of the Classes Grading and Marking.
Interaction Diagrams
The interaction diagrams are used for the description of the system and the actors are
provided with the system. The communication with the actors and the system are displayed
efficiently with the help of the communication diagrams. In addition to this, the interaction
diagram also helps the determination of the different states of the system and the objects
which are being used in the system. The main interaction diagram types are system sequence
diagram, activity diagram, and collaboration diagram.
Sequence Diagram
The sequence diagram helps provides the information about the flow of the processes
and the messages from within the system. The objects and the actors in the system sends and
receives different messages from within the system and the sequence diagram sorts these
messages in a systematic way so that an information regarding the system can be fetched by
observing the system sequence diagram.

SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
The above diagram provides the information about the information system designed
online for the Icon College. The VILS system is used as the object in the system and the
main actors of the system are the students and the tutors. The flow of messages from the
students to the system and the tutors have been shown in the above diagram that would help
the reader in understanding the procedures of the system. The system procedures starts with a
message of the logging into the system, and the process ends with the system providing the
student with the option to view the grades.
Collaboration Diagram
The collaboration diagram displays the actors in the system and communication of the
actors with the objects in the system, and the functions in the system are described in the
diagram.
