Your task is to document the functional requirements of the Australian Tax Office (ATO) in UML. In a typical learning environment, assignments are often based on hypothetical case studies, like those in the tutorials. Such case studies are limiting because you have little opportunity to investigate how authentic computer systems work, thus making it difficult to appreciate the complexity of an authentic system, the need for analysis and the usefulness of analysis tools. We hope that by investigating an authentic system you will appreciate the importance of analysis and the role of UML as a communication and analysis tool. During the analysis stage, UML is used to specify systems requirements, which will be used to design a computer system. In this assignment, we will use UML to document a system that has already been computerised – like reverse engineering a system (from an existing computer…arrow_forwardWhen doing system analysis and design, why is it helpful to use an object-oriented approach?arrow_forward
