Module Identifier ssedighs.2005.2
Abstract This module reiterates the role and application of system use case models. The main focus of the module is enabling students to identify use case narrative actions that need refinement. A homework assignment is included where students are to refine an existing use case for a lab access problem.
Size Lecture: 1 hour
Homework: 1 hour
Comments Previous version contained two copies of the RequestEntry use case: one in the homework description itself and another as a separate file. This new version corrects that problem.
