Structural modeling emphasizes the structure of objects of the system including their classes, relationships, attributes, and operations. Structural modeling consists of static structure modeling using class diagrams and object diagrams, and implementation modeling using component diagrams and deployment diagrams.
Learning Area:
Firstly we will learn structural modeling with class diagrams as it is the most common diagram found in modeling object-oriented systems. The Course covers the class notation and its applications for building object oriented systems which includes classes and objects, interfaces, and collaborations and their relationships. This Course shows you how to apply the structural modeling techniques by using class diagrams and object diagrams to model the static design view of a system. The differentiation between class and object diagrams will also be explained.
To make your system more reusable and organize in a manageable may two other diagrams are introduced in this Course: the Component Diagram and Package Diagram. Component diagrams show the organization and dependencies involved in the implementation of a system. They can group smaller elements, such as classes, into larger, deployable pieces. How much detail you use in component diagrams varies depending on what you are trying to show. While package diagrams are really special types of class diagrams. They use the same notation but their focus is on how classes and interfaces are grouped together.
Finally, you will learn how to deploy your software components into operational environment by using deployment diagram which shows how your system is actually executed and assigned to various pieces of hardware. You will also learn how to use deployment diagrams to show software components are configured at runtime.
