Q) Draw relevant State Chart and Activity Diagrams for the same system
State Diagram: Theory
Definition :
A State Diagram (also called a State Chart) is a type of UML behavioral diagram that shows the states an object
goes through in response to events, along with the transitions that cause the state to change.
Purpose:
It models the lifecycle of an object and is useful for systems where objects undergo different conditions or stages,
such as a Shipment in a Logistic Tracking System.
Components:
• States: Represent a condition or situation (e.g., Created, InTransit, Delivered).
• Transitions: Arrows that represent the movement from one state to another (e.g., assignDriver()).
• Events/Triggers: Actions that cause the transition.
• Initial State: Represented by a filled black circle.
• Final State: Represented by a bullseye symbol.
Activity Diagram: Theory
Definition:
An Activity Diagram is a UML diagram that represents the workflow or activities involved in a system or
process. It is similar to a flowchart and shows the sequence of steps in a process.
Purpose:
It visualizes the flow of control from one activity to another and helps understand how various components
interact in achieving a goal or task—like fulfilling an order in a logistics system.
Components:
• Start Node: Black filled circle.
• Activities: Rectangles with rounded corners (e.g., Place Order, Assign Driver).
• Decision Nodes: Diamonds used to show branching (e.g., Stock Available?).
• Arrows: Represent control flow from one activity to the next.
• End Node: A filled circle with an outer ring.

EXPERIMENT-9
Q.) Improve the reusability and maintainability of the software system by applying appropriate design
patterns.
1. Factory Pattern – For Object Creation
Problem:
Object creation code (e.g., Customer, Driver, Manager, Shipment) is scattered across the system.
Solution:
Use a Factory class to create instances dynamically without repeating constructor calls.
Benefit:
Easier to manage object creation, especially when adding new types (like a new "Logistic Officer" or "Warehouse
Supervisor") in the future.
Code :
public class EntityFactory {
public static Customer createCustomer(int id, String name, String phone, String address) {
return new Customer(id, name, phone, address);
public static Driver createDriver(int id, String name, String phone) {
return new Driver(id, name, phone);
public static Manager createManager(int id, String name, String phone) {
return new Manager(id, name, phone);
public static Shipment createShipment(int id, String origin, String destination) {
return new Shipment(id, origin, destination);
}
// Similarly for Vehicle, Invoice, Payment, etc.
}
2. Observer Pattern – For Notification System
Problem:
Currently, Manager must manually notify Drivers or Customers (e.g., assignment, delay updates).
Solution:
Use the Observer pattern: Drivers and Customers subscribe to Manager's updates.
Benefit:
When the Manager informs, all subscribed observers automatically get updates without hardcoding calls.
Implementation
import [Link];
import [Link];
// Observer Interface
interface Observer {
void update(String message);
// Concrete Observers
class Driver implements Observer {
private String name;
public Driver(String name) {
[Link] = name;
@Override
public void update(String message) {
[Link]("Driver " + name + " received notification: " + message);
}
}
class Customer implements Observer {
private String name;
public Customer(String name) {
[Link] = name;
@Override
public void update(String message) {
[Link]("Customer " + name + " received notification: " + message);
}
}
// Subject (Manager)
class Manager {
private List<Observer> observers = new ArrayList<>();
public void addObserver(Observer observer) {
[Link](observer);
public void notifyObservers(String message) {
for (Observer observer : observers) {
[Link](message);
}
}
}
3. Strategy Pattern – For Delivery Behavior
Problem:
Currently, Driver delivers shipments in a fixed way.
In reality, we may have different delivery strategies like:
• Normal Delivery
• Express Delivery
• Emergency Delivery
Solution:
Use a Strategy interface for DeliveryBehavior, and inject different implementations.
Benefit:
Driver's delivery method becomes flexible and changeable at runtime without modifying Driver class.
Implementation
// Strategy Interface
interface DeliveryStrategy {
void deliverShipment(Shipment shipment);
}
// Concrete Strategies
class NormalDelivery implements DeliveryStrategy {
@Override
public void deliverShipment(Shipment shipment) {
[Link]("Shipment " + [Link]() + " delivered normally.");
}
}
class ExpressDelivery implements DeliveryStrategy {
@Override
public void deliverShipment(Shipment shipment) {
[Link]("Shipment " + [Link]() + " delivered via Express Delivery!");
}
}
// Shipment Class
class Shipment {
private int shipmentId;
private String origin;
private String destination;
public Shipment(int shipmentId, String origin, String destination) {
[Link] = shipmentId;
[Link] = origin;
[Link] = destination;
public int getShipmentId() {
return shipmentId;
// Driver Class using Strategy
class DeliveryDriver {
private DeliveryStrategy strategy;
public void setDeliveryStrategy(DeliveryStrategy strategy) {
[Link] = strategy;
public void deliver(Shipment shipment) {
if (strategy != null) {
[Link](shipment);
} else {
[Link]("No delivery strategy set!");
}
CONCLUSION
By using design patterns, the Logistic Tracking System becomes:
• More modular
• Easier to maintain
• Ready for future extensions
