Question

Develop an activity diagram using an appropriate modelling tool based on the following narrative.

Kathy needs to buy things at the shop. She has a list of items she needs to buy and each time she either puts the item in the trolley, she crosses it off her list. She collects her trolley and starts to locate the aisle for each item on her list. If she cannot find an item, she asks her friend Michael, who is working at the supermarket, if the item is in stock. If the item is in stock, Michael shows Kathy the item’s location and she places it in her trolley. If it is not in stock, Michael asks Kathy if she wants him to order the item. If it is not urgent, she decides that she will order the item, so Michael writes down the item details and Kathy’s contact information on the order sheet and asks Norm, the supermarket manager, to order the item. Michael then lets Kathy know that the item has been ordered and approximately when the item will be available and Kathy writes “O” next to the item on her list. If Kathy urgently needs the item, she tells Michael not to worry, that she will go to another store to buy it, writes “*” next to the item on her list, and keeps working through her list of items. Once all of the items on her list have been checked off, Kathy goes to the checkout and starts putting the items on the conveyor. In the meantime, Michael opens the cash register and scans the items and puts them into bags. When all items have been scanned, Michael tells Kathy the total of her bill and asks how she will pay. Kathy decides to pay cash and gives Michael $100 for a bill of $89.90. Michael gives the change and receipt to Kathy and she leaves the supermarket.

Your diagram should include an appropriate level of detail and steps in order to address the following criteria:

• Use synchronisation bars to represent activities that can be carried out in parallel.

• Use decision nodes to represent decision activities that may be performed.

• For loop to represent inserting activities.

Your diagram should also address the following criteria:

• Use swimlanes to represent the actors in this scenario.
