+00:00:00,090 --> 00:00:02,435

+Now that we identify the classes in my system,

+

+2

+00:00:02,435 --> 00:00:04,930

+let's see how we can identify the attributes for

+

+3

+00:00:04,930 --> 00:00:08,680

+these classes. First of all let's recall what attributes

+

+4

+00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:12,355

+are. Attributes represent the structure of a class the individual

+

+5

+00:00:12,355 --> 00:00:15,530

+data items that compose the state of the class.

+

+6

+00:00:15,530 --> 00:00:18,530

+So how do we identify these attributes? Attributes may be

+

+7

+00:00:18,530 --> 00:00:21,070

+found in one of three ways. By examining class

+

+8

+00:00:21,070 --> 00:00:25,330

+definitions, by studying the requirements, and by applying domain knowledge.

+

+9

+00:00:25,330 --> 00:00:28,400

+And notice that I want to stress, that this is always

+

+10

+00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,800

+a very important aspect. No matter what kind of system you're

+

+11

+00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,670

+developing. Domain knowledge tends to be fairly important to identify things

+

+12

+00:00:35,670 --> 00:00:38,200

+Which might not be provided in the descriptions of the system

+

+13

+00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,070

+that tend to be incomplete. And that you can derive by

+

+14

+00:00:41,070 --> 00:00:44,390

+the fact that you are familiar with the domain. So always

+

+15

+00:00:44,390 --> 00:00:47,340

+keep in mind the domain knowledge is important for analysis, for

+

+16

+00:00:47,340 --> 00:00:50,430

+design, for requirements gathering and so on. So now let's go

+

+17

+00:00:50,430 --> 00:00:53,530

+back to our description of the system. As I said,

+

+18

+00:00:53,530 --> 00:00:55,450

+I will bring you back for each step of our

+

+19

+00:00:55,450 --> 00:00:58,200

+analysis. And in this case, we're going to focus on

+

+20

+00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,550

+course offering. And we can say that the course offering, according

+

+21

+00:01:01,550 --> 00:01:04,610

+to the description, has a number, a location, and a

+

+22

+00:01:04,610 --> 00:01:08,140

+time. So this is a pretty clear indication that these are

+

+23

+00:01:08,140 --> 00:01:11,650

+important aspects of the course offering. So they probably should

+

+24

+00:01:11,650 --> 00:01:15,600

+become attributes of the course offering class. So now if we

+

+25

+00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,400

+report here that sentence, and once more, we underline

+

+26

+00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,330

+the information that we underlined in the description. We can

+

+27

+00:01:22,330 --> 00:01:25,540

+clearly see how this can be mapped into the definition

+

+28

+00:01:25,540 --> 00:01:28,730

+of the class. So our class course offering after this

+

+29

+00:01:28,730 --> 00:01:32,900

+step the analysis will have 3 attributes: number, location, and

+

+30

+00:01:32,900 --> 00:01:35,270

+time. And as you can see here, I'm not specifying

+

+31

+00:01:35,270 --> 00:01:37,540

+the type or any other additional information. So in this

+

+32

+00:01:37,540 --> 00:01:40,640

+first step I'm just interested in having a first draft.

+

+33

+00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,170

+of the class diagram, that I can then

+

+34

+00:01:42,170 --> 00:01:44,440

+refine in the next iterations of my analysis.
