Deadline: June 1, 2009

Suggested steps for completing this assignment are as follows:

Step 1. Revise your business process models or the structure of your organization included in assignments 1& 2 on the basis of better understanding, second thoughts, feedback, etc. (optional).

Step 2. Identify a set of business processes that use the same kind of information; for example, for university department (like DISI) as organization, there are several business processes involving  student registration in a degree program, enrollment in a course, dropping a course, graduating; all of these use information about students, courses, enrollments, marks, ... and could be served by a single information system that managed such information.

Step 3.  Generate use cases for your information system by going over all activities in the business processes identified in step 2 that need information from the system, or input information into the system.

Step 4. Identify other use cases on top of those associated with your business processes; these may be there for monitoring, management, reporting, or exception handling purposes.

Step 5. Put together a UML class diagram that models the contents of your system's database; for the DISI student information system, the class diagram would model students, courses, marks, etc.

Step 6. For each use case give one or more sequence diagrams that describe one normal and zero or more exceptional executions of the use case.

Step 7. Put together a report that contains the output of your work for steps 1-6. Make sure all your models are appropriately documented so that someone who reads your report can understand what your models mean.

The suggested structure of your course project report is as follows:

0. Table of contents

1. Context -- the organization within which the project is conducted, its structure and actors, described in English/Italian.

2. Organizational models -- from assignment 1; these should binclude i* and ADONIS diagrams, and possibly others.

3. Business processes -- from assignments 1 & 2.

4. Business processes analysis -- from assignment 2

5. Information system design -- from assignment 3

Appendices -- All the material from your 3 assignments should appear here, properly structured; make sure to reference appendices from your report, and vice versa, reference parts of the report from each appendix.
