CHAPTER-6
DIAGRAMS

6.1 USE CASE DIAGRAMS

Use-cases model the system from the end-user’s point of view. Created during requirements
elicitation, use-cases should achieve the following objectives:
• To define the functional and operational requirements of the system (product) by
defining a scenario of usage that is agreed upon by the end-user and the software
engineering team.
• To provide a clear and unambiguous description of how the end-user and the system
interact with one another.
• To provide a basis for validation testing.
During OOA, use-cases serve as the basis for the first element of the analysis model. Using
UML notation, a diagrammatic representation of a use-case, called a use-case diagram, can be
created. Like many elements of the analysis model, the use-case diagram can be represented at
many levels of abstraction. The use-case diagram contains actors and use-cases. Actors are
entities that interact with the system. They can be human users or other machines or systems
that have defined interfaces to the software.

Figure 6.1: Use case diagram

19
6.2 SEQUENCE DIAGRAM
UML sequence diagrams are used to show how objects interact in a given situation. An
important characteristic of a sequence diagram is that time passes from top to bottom: the
interaction starts near the top of the diagram and ends at the bottom
Sequence diagrams contain the same information as Collaboration diagrams, but emphasize
the sequence of the messages instead of the relationships between the objects.
1. User Registration:
• User sends a registration request to the system.
• System validates the request and creates a new user account.
• System sends a confirmation message to the user.
2. Project Submission:
• User submits a new project to the system.
• System validates the project details and saves it in the database.
• System notifies the user of successful project submission.
3. Project Search:
• User sends a search query for projects matching specific criteria.
• System retrieves relevant projects from the database.
• System sends the search results to the user.
4. Collaboration Request:
• User sends a collaboration request to another user for a specific project.
• System notifies the recipient user of the collaboration request.
• Recipient user accepts or rejects the collaboration request.
• System updates the collaboration status and notifies both users accordingly.
5. Admin Management:
• Admin accesses the system dashboard to manage users and projects.
• System retrieves admin privileges and grants access to admin functionalities.

6.3 DATA FLOW DIAGRAMS

Data flow diagram is also called as ’bubble chart’ is a graphical technique, which is used to
represent information flow, and transformers those are applied when data moves from input to
output. DFD represents the system requirement clearly and identify transformers those become
programming design .DFD consists of series of bubble joint by lines.
DFD may be further portioned into different levels to show detail information flow e.g. Level
0, Level 1 etc.
DFD focuses on the fact ‘what data flow’ rather than ‘how data is processed’.

21
1. Level 0:
• This represents the highest level of abstraction and depicts the overall system as a
single process.
• The main components include Users, System, and Admin.

Figure 6.3: DFD level 0

2. Level 1 DFD:
• Users: Represents the interactions and data flow between users and the system.
 Sub-processes may include User Registration, Project Submission, Project
Search, Collaboration Requests, and User Feedback.
• System: Represents the core functionality of the system, including data processing
and storage.
 Sub-processes may include User Authentication, Project Management,
Database Management, and Notification Handling.
• Admin: Represents the interactions and data flow related to administrative tasks.
 Sub-processes may include Admin Authentication, User Management, Project
Approval, and Content Moderation.

Figure 6.4: DFD level 1

22
3. Level 2 DFD:
• This level provides more detailed insights into the sub-processes identified in the
Level 1 DFD.
• For example, the User Registration sub-process may involve data flows such as user
details input, validation, storage in the database, and confirmation message
generation.

Figure 6.5: DFD level 2

4. Data Stores:
• Represent repositories where data is stored within the system, such as the User
Database, Project Database, and Admin Database.
• Data stores facilitate the storage and retrieval of user information, project details,
and administrative data.
5. Data Flows:
• Represent the movement of data between processes, entities, and data stores within
the system.

23
 • For example, data flows may include user input during registration, project details
during submission, search queries, collaboration requests, and administrative
actions.

Figure 6.6: Data flow diagram

6. External Entities:
• Represent entities outside the system boundary that interact with the system, such
as Users and Admins.
• External entities generate inputs to the system and receive outputs from it.
