Effective Business Domain and Data Modelling
Course Outline
This course will run as an in-house course only. Getting the model of the business domain and the data associated with it right at the beginning of a software development project is crucial for software that meets the business needs of your organisation. Effective Business Domain and Data Modelling introduces techniques that ensure complete and accurate identification of business objects or entities and their associated attributes. This means a reduction of software faults, less time wasted on the production of unimplemented and unused features, and the early detection of defects. This course will provide you with the most advanced techniques in business domain modelling using UML Class Diagrams and State machine Diagrams. Data Modelling is also covered using E-R (Entity-Relationship Diagrams)
Outcomes
At the end of this course, you will be able to:
- Help users understand their business domain and the associated data model and express them to others.
- Produce documentation on the business domain using UML and E-R Diagrams as the diagram standards to enhance communication.
- Provide a clear, unambiguous statement of their business domain so that the level of correctness and completeness achieved in the solution can be measured during the System Acceptance phase.
