EX NO: 3 Identify Use Cases and Develop the Use Case Model

Aim:

To identify actors (Admin, Student, Librarian) and create a Use Case

diagram representing system interactions.

Use Case Diagram Description:

The Library Management System includes three main actors:

 Admin – Manages users, books, and system settings.

 Librarian – Handles book transactions (issuing, returning, and
managing inventory).
 Student – Searches for books, borrows, and returns them.

Use Cases:

Admin:

 Manage Users (Add, Update, Remove Users)

 Manage Books (Add, Update, Remove Books)
 Generate Reports
Librarian:

 Issue Books
 Return Books
 Check Book Availability

Student:

 Search Books
 Borrow Books
 Return Books
 Pay Fines
Result:
Thus, the actors (Admin, Student, Librarian) were successfully
identified, and a Use Case diagram was created to represent system
interactions.

EX NO: 4 Identify Conceptual Classes; Develop Domain Model &

Class Diagram

Aim:

To Identify real-world entities: Book, User, Librarian, Transaction,

develop Domain Model and create Class Diagram showing relationships,
attributes, and methods.

Conceptual Classes Identified:

 Book – Represents books in the library.

 User – Represents any person interacting with the library system.
 Librarian – A specific type of user responsible for book management.
 Transaction – Records book borrow and return details.

Domain Model:

The Domain Model represents high-level concepts in the system and

their relationships.

 A User (which can be a Student or Librarian) interacts with the system.

 A Librarian manages books and records transactions.
  A Transaction links a User with a Book to track borrowing and
returning.

Class Diagram:

The Class Diagram visualizes the relationships, attributes, and

methods of each conceptual class.

Classes & Attributes:

1.Book

title: String author: String

ISBN: String availability: Boolean

Methods: getDetails(), checkAvailability()

2. User

userID: String

name: String

email: String

Methods: register(), login()

3. Librarian (inherits from User)

Methods: issueBook(), returnBook(), manageBooks()

4. Transaction

transactionID: String

borrowDate: Date

returnDate: Date

fineAmount: Double

Methods: calculateFine(), recordTransaction()

Relationships:
  User borrows Books (tracked via Transaction).
 Librarian manages Books and records Transactions.
 Transaction links a User with a Book.

Result:

Thus, real-world entities such as Book, User, Librarian, and Transaction

were successfully identified, the Domain Model was developed, and the
Class Diagram was created, showcasing relationships, attributes, and
methods.

Ex 5: Using the identified scenarios, find the interaction between

objects and represent them

Aim:

To use identified scenario for Sequence Diagrams for key interactions

(User borrowing a book, Returning a book) and Collaboration Diagrams for
object interactions.

1. Sequence Diagrams

Sequence diagrams depict the order of interactions between system

components over time.

A. Borrowing a Book

Actors Involved: Student, Librarian, System, Book, Transaction

Steps:

1. Student searches for a book.

2. System checks book availability.
3. Student requests to borrow the book.
4. Librarian processes the request.
5. System updates the book status (unavailable).
6. System records the transaction.

B. Returning a Book
Actors Involved: Student, Librarian, System, Transaction

Steps:

1. Student returns the book.

2. Librarian verifies the return.
3. System updates the book status (available).
4. System calculates and processes any fine.
5. System updates the transaction record.

2. Collaboration Diagrams

Collaboration diagrams show how objects interact to achieve the

system’s functionality.

A. Borrowing a Book (Collaboration Diagram)

 Objects Involved: Student, Librarian, System, Book, Transaction

 Interactions:
 Student requests a book.
 Librarian checks book availability via the system.
 System updates the book’s status and records the transaction.

B. Returning a Book (Collaboration Diagram)

 Objects Involved: Student, Librarian, System, Transaction

 Interactions:
 Student returns the book.
 Librarian processes the return.
 System updates the book’s status and calculates fines if
applicable.

Sequence Diagrams for key interactions (User borrowing and returning a
book) and Collaboration Diagrams for object interactions.
Ex 6: Draw relevant State Chart and Activity Diagrams for the same
system

Aim:

To focus on modeling the state changes of a book and key workflows

in the Library Management System using State Chart and Activity Diagrams.

1. State Chart Diagram (Book Lifecycle)

The State Chart Diagram represents the lifecycle of a book in the

system.

States of a Book:

1. Available → Book is in stock and ready to be borrowed.

2. Requested → A user has requested to borrow the book.
3. Borrowed → The book is checked out by a user.
4. Overdue → Book is not returned on time.
5. Returned → Book is returned to the library.
6. Lost/Damaged → Book is marked as lost or damaged.

Transitions:

 A student requests a book → Moves from Available → Requested

 A librarian issues the book → Moves from Requested → Borrowed
 If the return date passes, it moves to Overdue
 If the book is returned on time, it moves to Returned
 If a book is damaged/lost, it moves to Lost/Damaged

2. Activity Diagrams

Activity Diagrams show the flow of control in a process.

A. Borrowing a Book

Steps:
 1. Student logs into the system.
2. Searches for a book.
3. Requests to borrow the book.
4. Librarian approves the request.
5. System updates book status to Borrowed.
6. Transaction is recorded.

B. Returning a Book

Steps:

1. Student returns the book.

2. Librarian verifies the book condition.
3. System updates book status to Available.
4. System calculates fines if overdue.
5. Transaction is updated.

Result:

Thus, the state changes of a book and key workflows in the Library
Management System were successfully modeled using State Chart and
Activity Diagrams.

scenarios based on the use case diagram.

Ex 9: Improve the reusability and maintainability of the software

system by applying appropriate design patterns

Aim:

To improve the reusability and maintainability of the software system

by applying appropriate design patterns.

Identify Design Patterns:

 Singleton: Database Connection

 Factory Pattern: Object Creation

 Observer Pattern: Notifications

1. Singleton Pattern (Database Connection)

 The Singleton Pattern ensures that only one instance of the database
connection exists in the application, preventing unnecessary multiple
connections.

import java.sql.Connection;

import java.sql.DriverManager;

import java.sql.SQLException;

public class DatabaseConnection {

private static DatabaseConnection instance;

private Connection connection;

private final String URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/library";

private final String USER = "root";

private final String PASSWORD = "password";

private DatabaseConnection() throws SQLException {

try {

Class.forName("com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver");

this.connection = DriverManager.getConnection(URL, USER,

PASSWORD);

} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {

throw new SQLException(e.getMessage());

public static DatabaseConnection getInstance() throws SQLException {

if (instance == null) {

instance = new DatabaseConnection();

 }

return instance;

public Connection getConnection() {

return connection;

2. Factory Pattern (Object Creation - User Factory)

The Factory Pattern is used to create different types of users (Student,

Librarian, Admin) without modifying the core logic.

Implementation:

abstract class User {

String name;

public abstract void displayRole();

class Student extends User {

public Student(String name) {

this.name = name;

public void displayRole() {

System.out.println(name + " is a Student.");

class Librarian extends User {

 public Librarian(String name) {

this.name = name;

public void displayRole() {

System.out.println(name + " is a Librarian.");

class UserFactory {

public static User getUser(String type, String name) {

if (type.equalsIgnoreCase("Student")) {

return new Student(name);

} else if (type.equalsIgnoreCase("Librarian")) {

return new Librarian(name);

return null;

public class FactoryPatternDemo {

public static void main(String[] args) {

User user1 = UserFactory.getUser("Student", "Alice");

User user2 = UserFactory.getUser("Librarian", "Bob");

user1.displayRole();

user2.displayRole();
 }

3. Observer Pattern (Notifications - Book Availability Updates)

The Observer Pattern is used for event-based communication. When a

book's availability status changes, all subscribed users get notified.

import java.util.ArrayList;

import java.util.List;

// Observer Interface

interface Observer {

void update(String message);

// Concrete Observer - Student

class Student implements Observer {

private String name;

public Student(String name) {

this.name = name;

@Override

public void update(String message) {

System.out.println("Notification to " + name + ": " + message);

}
// Subject (Observable) - Book

class Book {

private List<Observer> observers = new ArrayList<>();

private String title;

private boolean isAvailable;

public Book(String title) {

this.title = title;

this.isAvailable = true;

public void borrowBook() {

if (isAvailable) {

isAvailable = false;

notifyObservers("Book '" + title + "' is now borrowed.");

} else {

System.out.println("Book '" + title + "' is already borrowed.");

public void returnBook() {

isAvailable = true;

notifyObservers("Book '" + title + "' is now available.");

public void addObserver(Observer observer) {

observers.add(observer);
 }

public void notifyObservers(String message) {

for (Observer observer : observers) {

observer.update(message);

public class ObserverPatternDemo {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Book book = new Book("Design Patterns in Java");

Student student1 = new Student("Alice");

Student student2 = new Student("Bob");

book.addObserver(student1);

book.addObserver(student2);

book.borrowBook(); // Both students get notified

book.returnBook(); // Both students get notified again

Result:

Thus, the application of appropriate design patterns was

successfully implemented to enhance the reusability and maintainability of
the software system
Ex 10: Implement the modified system and test it for various
