Object-Oriented Modeling with PowerDesigner 15

Goals

• Create and manage Object-oriented models in PowerDesigner
• Use and interpret UML model notation
• Create UML Use-Case diagrams and capture specifications within the Use-Case
• Create a UML Package, Component and Deployment diagram
• Create UML Sequence and Statechart diagrams
• Collect information relevant to the development of Class diagrams
• Forward-engineer your model into code
• Reverse-engineer code into a model
• Keep the model and code in sync
• Create reports
• Interact with other PowerDesigner models such as Physical Data models

Notes

• Learn how to use PowerDesigner 15.1 to create key UML diagrams for the Object-Oriented Model type. You will be given a high-level overview of the UML and Object-Oriented Analysis and Design and how PowerDesigner works with these principles.
• The goal of this course is to give you a better understanding of PowerDesigner and how to extend PowerDesigner to better serve your organization’s needs.
• The class will take you through the capturing of specifications, all the way to code generation. You will also be shown how to reverse- engineer existing code into an Object-Oriented Model. Interaction with other models is also discussed.
• Other optional course topics include: Object-Relational mapping, using the PowerDesigner Repository, Web Service modeling, using the PowerDesigner Requirements model or use of the plug-ins for Visual Studio or Eclipse.
