ITECH7201: System Design and Analysis Assignment - Java Application

This assignment focuses on system design and analysis using an object-oriented approach. It involves the design and development of a Java console application, covering key concepts like use cases, UML diagrams (use case, class, and sequence diagrams), and object-oriented programming principles, particularly polymorphism and the use of interfaces. The assignment aims to bridge the gap between the problem and the solution, emphasizing the importance of object-oriented principles such as abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and dynamic binding. The student has demonstrated an understanding of object-oriented design, incorporating features like polymorphism and the use of interfaces within a Java environment. The solution also highlights the use of UML diagrams for modeling the software and system architecture. The assignment also provides references to relevant materials such as "Java: An Introduction to Problem Solving and Programming" and "Object-oriented data structures using Java."

System design and analysis
Reflection:
In the approach that is object oriented, always the focus is to capture the behaviour as
well as structure of the information systems in some of the small modules that are having the
ability to combine both the processes and data. The primary purpose of the Object oriented
approach is for improving the productivity as well as quality of the system analysis and
design through making that more utilizable. In the phase of analysis, the object oriented
model can be used for filling the gap that remains between the solution and problem. The
elements of the object oriented programs are objects, behaviour, attributes, methods, class
and message. The features that the object oriented approach is having is abstraction,
encapsulation, relationships, inheritance and polymorphism and dynamic binding. The
polymorphism is having the ability for taking on so many of the forms that are different. This
can apply both of the operations and objects. In the operations that are related to the
polymorphism, that operation can be carried out differently by the various classes that are
parts of the objects. On the other side the UML is one of the visual languages which allows
the users to model the procedures, software as well as systems for expressing the design of
the architecture of the systems. This is one of the most standard languages for documenting
and designing a system that is existing in a manner that is object oriented as well as it gives
the allowance to the technical architects for communicating with the developers.
