Use Case Diagram

1. The Hospital Reception System

In a small clinic with limited resources a hospital subsystem or module supports some of the
many job duties of hospital receptionist. The receptionist schedules patient's appointments
and admission to the hospital, collects information from patient upon patient's arrival and/or
by phone. For the patient that will stay in the hospital ("inpatient") she or he should have a
bed allotted in a ward. Receptionists might also receive patient's payments, record them in a
database and provide receipts, file insurance claims and medical reports.

Draw a business use case diagram for the above scenario (6 Marks)

2. Magurudumu is a bicycle manufacturing company based in Kapsabet. Magurudumu

buy all the parts for its bicycles from various suppliers around the world. The parts are
then assembled in the factory in Kapsabet to produce a number of different bicycle
models. Customers of Magurudumu place orders for the bicycles they require, and
delivery is estimated to take three weeks.

Each customer order can consist of more than one model of bicycle, and the required
quantity of each model is also recorded on the order. At the end of each week a forecast
is produced so the manufacturing department knows how many of each bicycle model it
needs to produce in the following week.

The forecast is based on the number of each model in stock and the quantity of each
model ordered by customers. The forecast is also used to place purchase orders for parts
from the suppliers so that all the necessary parts are available for the week’s production.
Each individual bicycle that is assembled has a unique code stamped on the frame.

When a customer order is ready for dispatch, the frame code of each actual bicycle
allocated to that customer order is recorded so that each bicycle can be traced to a
 particular customer. Deliveries to customers can be arranged for complete or partial
orders.
