Assessment 3

Assessment type: Modelling assignment and report Individual assessment. (1,000 words)

Purpose: This assessment will allow students to demonstrate that they can analyse the given case study. Students are required to draw use case, Domain model, System Sequence modelling diagrams for the given case study, justify the choose of modelling tools, and explain the conclusions. This assessment contributes to learning outcomes c and d.

Value: 20% Due Date: Week 11

Assessment topic: Creating UML Diagrams according to the case study

Task Details; The case study is the same for assessment 2 and 3 and is provided in assessment 2 details. In assignment 2 the requirement gathering step was completed with some requirement modelling. For assignment 3 you need to take the processes of system analysis and design further.

Case scenario: BigMart is a retail business that sells a variety of items (grocery, entertainment, sporting goods, crafts, etc.) to their customers through their physical stores. They are planning to expand their business into an online direction soon. To fulfill the need of online customers, they intend to open several warehouses that would be located across the state strategically to provide quick and highly efficient service to their online customers. They also maintain their private fleet of trucks and skilled staff of truck drivers that would be employed to move goods to and from the warehouses.

The proposed system will offer a variety of features to serve the needs of their customers to create convenience at the lowest price while shopping online. This system should allow customers to order fresh groceries and other items online with same-day pickup, or delivered to their door. There should be a feature that would provide facilities such as making payment, keeping track of the order, and express returns done with just the touch of a button. The newest system should be capable of handling the shipping of ordered items as well as keep track of stock at the warehouse and generate reports accordingly if required by management. There need to be restricted access to any confidential information about the business to those authorised to view the data using a password system.

You as a system analyst, are hired by the BigMart authorities, to analyse and design the Online ordering system that should be able to perform tasks according to the details provided in the above case study. This will also require you to make necessary assumptions and document all your assumptions in your report.

Report must contain at least the following sections:

1. Use Cases: Provide name and complete descriptions of at least two use cases for the system discussed and draw use case diagrams.
2. Activity Diagram: Provide activity diagrams for all use cases.
3. Sequence Diagrams: Provide sequence diagrams for all use cases.
4. Domain Model Class Diagram: Provide domain model class diagram
5. State Machine Diagram: Provide at least one state machine diagram.
6. User Interface: Provide a final user interface design by using dialogue and storyboard methods.
7. Conclusion: provide a summary and recommendations.

In all UML diagrams such as Use Case, Class, Object and activity diagrams, clearly present your finding of the system interactions and use accurate technical language, abbreviations and symbols.
