UML and Java Exercies: Develop a simple patient monitoring system

A hospital has many doctors and patients. Each doctor and patient has a name and unique number associated with them. Doctors look after many patients but a patient has exactly one doctor. We are asked to develop a patient monitoring system by recording which patient is associated with a particular doctor.

Develop a suitable design and implementation based on above requirements. You can add as much details as you think is appropriate.

We will follow use-case driven approach. The development of the system is organized in increments:

1. The system will provide basic functionality with console IO
2. Automate tests with unit tests
3. Data persistence
4. GUI
5. Web interface

The outcome for each increment is achieved in steps:

1. Establish use-cases:
   1. Create use case diagrams
   2. Describe use cases with text
   3. Create test-cases
2. Analysis
   1. Create sequence, collaboration, object, and activity diagrams.
3. Design
   1. Create class diagrams.
4. Implementation
   1. Architectural code
   2. Method code
   3. Testing
5. Reconcile model
