Rational Software Architect: Mastering

Course Overview

• This course shows architects, designers, and lead developers how to apply Rational Software Architect and the Rational Unified Process (RUP) to design a J2EE enterprise application within a Service Oriented Architecture: Develop and structure UML analysis and design models
• Develop software services as part of a service-oriented architecture
• Reuse existing components in a new architecture.

Audience

Software developers who architect and design enterprise applications, and who:

• Employ Model-Driven Development or Model-Driven Architecture strategies.
• Incorporate existing code and reusable assets in new development projects.
• Design and develop solutions as part of a RUP-driven software development process.

Skills Gained

• Upon completion of this course, students should be able to:
• Describe the organization of use-case, analysis, design, and deployment models.
• Generate an analysis model from a requirements model and elaborate on the model.
