Summary
The object-oriented analysis of the Course Registration System identifies key objects
such as Student, Course, Registration, Instructor, Department, Payment, and
Schedule. These objects interact through relationships that define registration, teaching,
departmental association, payment processing, and scheduling.
The Mermaid-based diagrams represent the core components of the Course
Registration System using an object-oriented approach. The state transition diagram
illustrates how a Registration progresses through states (Not Registered, Pending
Registration, Registered, and Dropped) triggered by events handled by processes
(CreateRegistration(), UpdateStatus(), CancelRegistration()). The class diagram details
all relevant objects, their attributes, and operations. The optional use case diagram
visually identifies system interactions between students, instructors, and the registrar’s
office. These diagrams fully document the system’s structure and behavior as required for
robust analysis and clear communication (Satzinger et al., 2015).
