Scenario

Middle East College is organizing an 4 th International conference on Big Data and Smart City (ICBDSC) offer to the researchers or authors to publish communicate and exchange information regarding their work. This conference has a program committee whose role is to decide which papers should be published based on the assessment of the quality of the research work. The information system should allow its users (Researcher, Conference chair, Reviewer) to sign in using their username and password. When a researcher or author wants to publish an article in this conference, he has to submit the abstracts and full papers to the program committee. Then, the committee proposes to several well-known researchers of the field to review and assess the quality of the article. Once reviews are made, they are collected by the program committee. Then the final decision concerning the acceptance of the article is made. The results of this whole process are then sent back to the researcher who submitted the article. Articles are often a collective work and are signed by several researchers (usually 3 to 4) who may be affiliated to different institutions. One of the co-authors (usually the one who has submitted the article) is considered as the corresponding author. Moreover, conferences may accept several article formats such as posters, short articles or long articles. Each researcher may submit several different articles and reviewers may also assess the quality of several articles. Members of the program committee dispatch the articles to reviewers and then make the final decision concerning an article. The System administrator is the person who installs, updates, and restores the system. Your main goal, in this scenario, is to design an information system that will automate the submission and assessment processes. It means that the articles should be transmitted numerically (using pdf/word formats) and that the corresponding author has to authenticate himself. The main submission interface will be a web site. Moreover, automated notification messages are sent by email to keep informed program committee members, reviewers and authors at each step of the review.

1. Based on above scenario,Design a sequence diagram, which shows one particular sequence of events for the ‘Submit articles’ use case and perform the following; ? Identify main objects ? List out the main flow of events ? Translate the flows into corresponding system events (input and response). ? Design sequence diagram.
