Finishing Up: The Analysis Model

With the completion of the use-cases, classes (entity, control, and boundary), class diagram, and related associations, we have completed the analysis model. The analysis model consists of everything completed so far. Recall that the requirements model consisted of the use-cases delivered at the completion of the Inception phase. The use-cases for Remulak Productions have been described in great detail, and from them we have derived additional diagrams and supporting artifacts (multiplicity, roles, and association names).

In the remaining chapters that deal with the Elaboration phase, we further flesh out the classes, adding more attributes and operations. In addition, the control and boundary classes, in their own contexts with the entity classes, begin to meld. The eventual result will be the design model for Remulak Productions.
