Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a graphical language used many types of systems models which shows different views of a system being design. The UML is used to describe the conceptual view and process view of an automated ticket-issuing system to be used by passengers on a railway station and for a computer-controlled video-conferencing system used with video, audio, and computer data to participants. Diagrams will show the conceptual and process view of these two systems and have justification for each of the decisions in the design. There is an explanation on how the final solution of the four diagrams were created to allow people to perform the tasks they need. An automated ticket-issue system is used by passengers to order tickets for the railway station. The automated process will make it easier and save time for customers to purchase the tickets online and get the schedule of the trains. Shown in the conceptual view of the railway system below, the customers will need to create an account with the name, address, phone number, and payment information. For the program to work, the customers will need to create their accounts and have access to modify accounts, book and cancel tickets, or modify dates of the tickets. In the program, Customer is the name of the class, with the name, address, phone number, and payment being the class attributes. In the bottom part of the box, lists the actions that the customers can do such as create the account, modify the accounts, etc. When the customers buys a ticket, the ticket will need to contain information for the customer to get on the train. The Ticket Reservation class has the attributes of the ticket ID, location of the train and information identifying which train to get ... ... middle of paper ... ...odify the information as needed and interface setting. The interface have options for the user to pick if they want to use video, audio, or both. The video conference will start and save the settings for future use as long as the person has an account. The account information is stored on the servers and any of the online documents needed for the meeting which are stored temporary for a period of time. This allows to keep space on the servers free for other participants’ files saving from have to buy and install more hard drives. Works Cited Baltzan, P., & Phillips, A. (2009).
