*+e aim of t+is tutorial is to s+o) +o) to use UML in ,real, soft)are develo%ment
environment.
1. Elevator *ro$lem
A %rodu"t is to be installed to "ontrol elevators in a building )it+ m floors. *+e %roblem
"on"erns t+e logi" re!uired to move elevators bet)een floors a""ording to t+e follo)ing
"onstraints-

Ea"+ elevator +as a set of m buttons. one for ea"+ floor. *+ese illuminate )+en
%ressed and "ause t+e elevator to visit t+e "orres%onding floor. *+e illumination is
"an"eled )+en t+e elevator visits t+e "orres%onding floor.

Ea"+ floor. e/"e%t t+e first floor and to% floor +as t)o buttons. one to re!uest and
u%&elevator and one to re!uest a do)n&elevator. *+ese buttons illuminate )+en
%ressed. *+e illumination is "an"eled )+en an elevator visits t+e floor and t+en
moves in t+e desired dire"tion.

0+en an elevator +as no re!uests. it remains at its "urrent floor )it+ its doors
"losed.

2. Uni%ie) Mo)eling Langage
UML is a modeling language t+at only s%e"ifies semanti"s and notation but no %ro"ess is
"urrently defined. *+us. )e de"ided to do t+e analysis as follo)s1

+.1. Use case )iagram
Use "ase des"ri%tion-

A generali2ed des"ri%tion of +o) a system )ill be used.
Provides an overvie) of t+e intended fun"tionality of t+e system.
Understandable by laymen as )ell as %rofessionals.
Use Case Diagram-

Elevator doors "loses
Elevator moves to re!uired floor

+.2. &lass -iagram
Class diagrams s+o) t+e stati" stru"ture of t+e ob3e"t. t+eir internal stru"ture. and t+eir
relations+i%s.
&lass )iagram:





+.+. .tate )iagram
A state diagram s+o)s t+e se!uen"es of states an ob3e"t goes t+roug+ during it4s life "y"le
in res%onse to stimuli. toget+er )it+ its res%onses and a"tions.


/. -esign
*+e design %+ase s+ould %rodu"e t+e detailed "lass diagrams. "ollaboration diagrams.
se!uen"e diagrams. state diagrams. and a"tivity diagram. 5o)ever. t+e elevator %roblem
is too sim%le for an a"tivity diagram. *+us. )e are not using an a"tivity diagram for t+e
elevator %roblem.
/.1. .e0ence -iagram
A se!uen"e diagram and "ollaboration diagram "onveys similar information but
e/%ressed in different )ays. A Se!uen"e diagram s+o)s t+e e/%li"it se!uen"e of
messages suitable for modeling a real&time system. )+ereas a "ollobration diagram s+o)s
t+e relations+i%s bet)een ob3e"ts.
