Checkpoint of the Future: A UML-based Framework for Design and Analysis

This paper contributes to the design of the background check and ID verification process of the Checkpoint of the Future. Criminal actions and terrorist attacks have led to increased security measures that have put strain on both airport resources and the processing rate of passengers in security lanes. The ‘Checkpoint of the Future’ has to reduce checkpoint security queues, lower airport costs, and maintain or even improve current security standards. In the mean time, it should improve passenger’s perception of safe travelling. The Future Checkpoint Design Framework developed in this research provides a theory based structured approach to identify design limitations for the background check and ID verification part of the Checkpoint of the Future. The Object Oriented Analysis and Design method together with the UML modeling technique are used to translate requirements to a Future Checkpoint Design Framework that includes the design limitations derived from these requirements This is achieved by creating different UML modeling diagrams for each of the corresponding steps of the engineering design cycle chosen for the design approach. The developed Future Checkpoint Design Framework illustrates design limitations in the UML diagrams based on law and regulations, as a consequence of these restrictions the resulting components for the future design show many similarities to the current system.
