Q: 1 In context of software engineering, UML stands for:

  1. Utility Modern Laboratory

  2. Unit Markup List

  3. Unified Modeling Language

  4. Unified Markup Link

[ Option C ]

UML stands for Unified Modeling Language, a standardized visual language used to model, design, and document software systems.

UML DIAGRAMTYPEDESCRIPTION
Use Case DiagramBehavioralRepresents the functional requirements of a system. It shows how users or external actors interact with the system to achieve specific goals.
Timing DiagramRepresents the behavior of objects over time, showing changes in state or conditions with respect to time. It is mainly used in real-time and embedded systems.
Sequence DiagramIllustrates how objects interact with each other in a time sequence. It shows the order of messages exchanged during a particular process.
Activity DiagramModels the flow of control or data from one activity to another. It is used to represent workflows and business processes.
State Machine DiagramRepresents the different states of an object and the transitions between those states based on events. It is useful for modeling reactive systems.
Component DiagramStructuralDisplays the organization and dependencies among various software components. It helps in understanding the implementation structure of the system.
Deployment DiagramDescribes the physical architecture of the system, showing hardware nodes and the software components deployed on them.
Class DiagramDescribes the static structure of a system by showing classes, their attributes, operations, and the relationships among them.
Object DiagramProvides a snapshot of instances of classes (objects) and their relationships at a particular moment in time. It helps in understanding the system’s runtime behavior.
Package DiagramGroups related classes or elements into packages and shows dependencies among these packages. It helps in managing large-scale systems.
Composite Structure DiagramShows the internal structure of a class and the collaborations among its parts. It helps in analyzing complex system components.

Q: 2 UML stands for:

  1. Unified Modeling Language.

  2. Universal Markup Language.

  3. Unified Management Logic.

  4. User Modeling Language.

[ Option A ]

UML is a standardized modeling language used for visualizing, specifying, constructing, and documenting software systems.

Q: 3 In a DFD, a circle represents:

  1. Data store

  2. Process

  3. External Entity

  4. Data Flow

[ Option B ]

In DFD (Data Flow Diagram), the circle represents processes that transform input data into output data.

Q: 4 CASE tools are mainly used to:

  1. Replace programmers.

  2. Automate software development tasks.

  3. Test hardware systems.

  4. Write project proposals.

[ Option B ]

CASE (Computer-Aided Software Engineering) tools automate various stages like analysis, design, coding, and testing.

Q: 5 Which of the following are represented by the box icons divided into horizontal parts in UML class diagrams?

  1. classes only

  2. interfaces only

  3. neither a class nor an interface

  4. classes, abstract classes and interfaces

[ Option D ]

In Unified Modeling Language (UML), classes, abstract classes, and interfaces are depicted using Rectangular Boxes divided into three horizontally into compartments.

  • The top compartment contains the name of the class, abstract class, or interface.
  • The middle compartment lists attributes (for classes and abstract classes).
  • The bottom compartment lists methods or operations.

This standardized box notation applies to classes, abstract classes (often italicized names), and interfaces (sometimes labeled with «interface»).

Student
name : String
rollno : int
setDetails() : void
getDetails() : void
updateRecord() : void

 

Employee  
empID: int
salary: float
calculateBonus() : void

 

«interface» 
Drawable
Interfaces typically do not have attributes.
draw() : void
resize() : void

Q: 6 Which symbol in Data Flow Diagrams represents Data Store?

  1. rpsc-programmer-arrow

  2. open-rectangle-rpsc-programmer

  3. rectangle-rpsc-programmer

  4. oval-rpsc-programmer

[ Option B ]

In a Data Flow Diagram (DFD), different symbols are used to show how data moves within a system. A Data Store is a place where data is kept for later use. It could be a file, a database table, a ledger, or any storage location. To represent this storage in a DFD, we use Two Parallel Horizontal Lines (Open-Ended Rectangle).

DFD SYMBOLUSE
Process
(Circle or Rounded Rectangle)		Shows an activity that transforms input data into output data. It represents work being done.
Data Flow
(Arrow)		Represents the movement of data between entities, processes, and data stores.
External Entity
(Rectangle / Square)		Represents a person, department, organization, or system outside the boundary of the current system that provides or receives data.
Data Store
(Two parallel horizontal lines)		Represents a place where data is stored for later use, such as files, databases, or records.

Q: 7 ____________ is a program development tool used for specifying program logic.

  1. DFD

  2. Structure Chart

  3. Program Flow Chart

  4. Fourth Generation Language Tools (4GL Tools)

[ Option C ]

A program flow chart is a development tool used to visually represent the step-by-step logic of a program. It uses standard symbols to show the flow of control, decisions, loops, inputs, outputs, and processing steps. This helps programmers design, understand, and debug program logic before writing actual code.

Q: 8 A _____________ describes how a user interacts with the system by defining the steps required to accomplish a specific goal.

  1. DFD

  2. Program Flow Chart

  3. Use Case Diagram

  4. System Chart

[ Option C ]

A Use Case Diagram describes how a user interacts with a system by defining the steps or scenarios required to accomplish a specific goal. It visually represents the actors and the use cases they perform with the system. This helps stakeholders understand system behavior from the user's perspective, facilitating requirement gathering and system design.

  • A Use Case Diagram shows how a user interacts with the system.
  • Use Case Diagrams focus on capturing "what" the system does, not "how" it does it.
  • They illustrate interactions between users and system functionalities.
