Case Study: Store's activity diagram
Mydin Mart, a small grocery store chain, is developing a website that will allow customers to place orders for groceries and other items they sell. The customer places a Web order, the customer master is updated, and an order record is created. The order is printed at a nearby store, and store employees select the items from the shelves. Customers are notified via email when their order is ready. Frozen goods, chilled products, and other items are assembled when they pick up the order.
Case study questions:
Q1. Draw an activity diagram showing the customer using the website to place an order, verification of the order, order confirmation, order details sent to the local store, and a customer email sent to the customer. Please DO NOT use hand-drawing.
Q2. What does an activity diagram depict?
Q3. Write one paragraph that describes the use of swimlanes on activity diagrams.
Q4. Why is using UML for modeling important?
