You have been given a specific problem description, and (hopefully) you have prepared yourself for this assessment by reviewing the scenario, and developing a set of objects (e.g., UML Class Model Diagram) that represent the entities in that scenario appropriately.  For this assessment, you will be provided a file that contains the information for the initial starting state of the simulation along with a sequence of commands taken by the mower. You must “walk-through” and explain how your system (i.e., the objects and their interactions) will impact and modify the state as they execute your assigned sequence of commands.  You must model your walk-through demonstration as the explanation of your Sequence Diagram with object-level data and interactions.  Your explanation must be detailed and cover the following aspects of the interactions: Domain objects with unique names for multiple objects of the same class Vertical lines to represent the object creation and lifecycle duration Named message between objects that include appropriate parameters (solid lines and directional arrows) Labeled return values between objects where required (dotted lines and directional arrows) Selection constructs with the appropriate boolean conditions to determine which alternatives should be selected Iteration constructs with the appropriate boolean conditions to determine when the loops should be terminated You must explain how the system is able to keep track of the state of the simulation accurately based on the mower’s activity.  This is not simply a “generic” sequence diagram, but rather a sequence diagram tailored to your specific sequence of activities. In the latest version of the exam, you will NOT have to create a separate video.  Instead, we will evaluate the recording created by Honorlock during your testing session.  Your goal should be to provide a 10-15 (twenty/20 as an absolute maximum) minutes. Here are the contents of the file that defines the initial state of the simulation: 6513,1,West31,23,34,1 ————————————————————— Here is the sequence of actions that must be modeled for your walk-through: scangrass,grass,crater,grass,grass,grass,grass,grassmove,1,Eastokmove,1,Southeastokscangrass,grass,crater,grass,grass,grass,empty,grassmove,1,Southokscancrater,grass,grass,fence,fence,fence,grass,emptymove,2,Southwestcrash —————————————————————

    In a 500-word (or more) essay,  write of how _____________ (a celebrity – not a fictional character) is the epitome of the son Kipling is referring to in his poem, “If.” The poem can be found below. *Remember, once you begin the essay, you must complete it. You will not be able to start and stop. You need a well-developed thesis, and you must cite to prove your point of view. In order to indent your paragraphs, you will need to use the space bar. As well, use present tense throughout the essay. Great luck!     If you leave the exam for any reason, your grade will resort to a zero.   If     Rudyard Kipling   If you can keep your head when all about you        Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,    If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,     But make allowance for their doubting too;    If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,     Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,     And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:               8 If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;        If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;    If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster     And treat those two impostors just the same;    If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken     Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,     And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:                16 If you can make one heap of all your winnings     And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings     And never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew     To serve your turn long after they are gone,    And so hold on when there is nothing in you     Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’               24 If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,        Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,     If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute     With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,    Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,        And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!               3
