Lesson outline

• The teacher briefly explains the utilization of packages and interfaces for component development and demonstrates the principles in a case study.
• Students divide classes into packages (within the class diagram). In every package create at least one external interface (interface with services useful outside of the package).
• Students create a separate package diagram, draw inter-package dependencies. Verify that the dependencies are "reasonable". If necessary, re-arrange classes in packages to get reasonable dependencies.
• The class diagram with packages and interfaces together with the package diagram shall be submitted as a result of this seminar.
