Question

Case Study #1 Develop the conceptual/analysis class diagram based on the following narrative. Note any ambiguities or questions that you have as you develop the model. If you need to make assumptions, also note them. The purpose of the Open Access Insurance System is to provide automotive insurance to car owners. Initially, prospective customers fill out an insurance application, which provides information about the customer and his or her vehicles. This information is sent to an agent, who sends it to various insurance companies to get quotes for insurance. When the responses return, the agent then determines the best policy for the type and level of coverage desired and gives the customer a copy of the insurance policy proposal and quote.

Case Study #2 Develop the conceptual/analysis class diagram based on the following narrative. Note any ambiguities or questions that you have as you develop the model. If you need to make assumptions, also note them. The purchasing department handles purchase requests from other departments in the company. People in the company who initiate the original purchase request are the "customers" of the purchasing department. A case worker within the purchasing department receives that request and monitors it until it is ordered and received. Case workers process requests for the purchase of products under $1,500, write a purchase order, and then send it to the approved vendor. Purchase requests over $1,500 must first be sent out for bid from the vendor that supplies the product. When the bids return, the case worker selects one bid. Then, he or she writes a purchase order and sends it to the vendor.

• As, insurance agent has many attributes to consider and many changes to be made in the insurance is done by insurance agent in Case 1. Hence, yes it should be represented as an class.

2.) True

• As, the customer also has many attributes it must also be an class as suggested by reading the Case 1.
• When talking about association, there are many instances of the customer part linked to the Insurance Policy and hence, the association must also be there.

• As, seen in Case 1 the customer class will also receive some arguments from the insurance policy class which will be responsible for some tasks.
• Hence, it cannot be an directed association.

4.) True

• Hence, there must be two seperate classes made in the class diagram.

5.) True
