Essential Techniques for Object-Oriented Modeling using PowerDesigner 12

Sybase, Inc.

Course Format: Classroom | E-learning | Virtual Class | Online | On-site | Blended | Self-paced

Course Description:

'' First, learn the basics of Object-Oriented programming, Systems Architectures, OOA&D approaches and UML. Many of these concepts are put into practice throughout the tool, thus making these fundamental concepts a pre-requisite for success in implementing the product.

You will then use the PowerDesigner IDE to create Object-Oriented models by using a case study through which you will work as a group with other students in your class - modeling a solution to a set of provided requirements. The class will take turns “driving�the PowerDesigner product during the lab sessions in order to gain hands-on experience. There is no right-or-wrong answer for the labs �they will depend on class interaction and decisions. The instructor will be the consultant, the mentor, the tie-breaker. A possible solution will be provided by Sybase.

Explore how PowerDesigner implements the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The courseware will provide high-level design requirements to start, allowing you to experience a “real world�approach to Object Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD). You and your class will be formulating the detailed requirements and designing the system in a team environment, including taking the design to its final stages where the model is forward engineered into live code.

You will either use PowerBuilder, C# or Java as the language of choice, once you enter into the concrete modeling phases. This is not a programming class. The main focus will be on modeling an application’s Business Logic or Problem Domain. There will be no end-to-end solution created. There will be no testing of a “final�product, since OO modeling does not encompass GUI aspects.
