Sistema de gestão de bolsas de estudo: modelo conceptual para o subsistema de atribuição de bolsas de estudo caso de estudo – UEM

Abstract

Over the years, the Eduardo Mondlane University (UEM) has seen a remarkable growth in terms of Faculties and Courses, which is commendable, but despite this, there has been a loss of quality in the services provided by some of its sectors, especially with regard to their response time. A concrete case of the situation described above can be seen in the Academic Registration Directorate, more particularly in the process of granting Scholarships, within the scope of the Scholarship Attribution Subsystem (SABE), where critical moments in execution have been observed. activities, within the stipulated time. In the present Degree Work, the construction of a Conceptual Model arises from the need to find possible ways to improve the functioning of SABE. For this purpose, resorting to the use of an object-oriented development methodology seemed a wise choice, as it leads to the design of more realistic, less complex and more flexible systems. The methodology selected for this research work was the OMT/UML methodology, a combination of the development process suggested by the Object Modeling Technique (OMT) with the notation proposed by the Unified Modeling Language (UML) ). The OMT/UML development process covers the entire Information Systems (IS) development cycle, with its focus more on the analysis phase than on the other phases, and presents a standard language for systems modeling, which it has several techniques to capture and represent the various aspects of the SI. The Conceptual Model built for SABE is presented from three perspectives, in terms of static, dynamic and functional elements, using text descriptions and diagrams for its representation. In this work, the current Model of SABE is presented, as well as the Model that incorporates the requirements identified for an eventual restructuring of this Subsystem. (TRADUÇÃO NOSSA)
