Topics for Exam 2 in Com S 362 This test covers topics from homeworks 2, 3, and problems 1-5 from homework 4. REMINDERS This test is open book and notes. However, it is to be done individually and you are not to exchange or share materials with other students during the test. So if you have materials on your team project you wish to refer to during the test, please make copies. If you need more space, use the back of a page. Note when you do that on the front. This test is timed. We will not grade your test if you try to take more than the time allowed. Therefore, before you begin, please take a moment to look over the entire test so that you can budget your time. For diagrams and programs, clarity is important; if your diagrams or programs are sloppy and hard to read, you will lose points. Correct syntax also makes some difference. READINGS Principally, chapters 1-9 of Craig Larman's "Applying UML and Patterns: An Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design and the Unified Process", Second Edition. Prentice Hall PTR, Upper Saddle River, NJ, 2001. Also read chapters 1-3 and 5 of Martin Fowler with Kendall Scott's book UML Distilled (Addison-Wesley Longman, Inc., Reading, MA, 2000).
