8.3 Customer registration application design
The application design for the customer registration scenario is illustrated in this
section by an activity diagram and a sequence diagram, followed by a
step-by-step explanation. These diagrams were created using the modeling tools
available in Rational Software Architect.
8.3.1 Activity diagram
The activity diagram, shown in Figure 8-2, is a UML diagram that provides a view
of the behavior of a system by describing the sequence of actions in a process.
ITSOMart created this diagram at the beginning of the project to clarify the flow of
events required to accomplish their objectives.
