Study Notes
What is Design?
- Design is a meaningful representation of something to be built.
- It's a process where requirements are translated into a blueprint for constructing software.
- The blueprint gives a holistic view of the entire software.
Software Design Process?
- It's the most creative part of the development process.
- The Design Model is created from the Requirements Engineering Model.
- This process involves diversification and convergence.
Software design work products
- Different modules are designed.
- Control relationships among modules are established.
- Interfaces among the modules are specified.
Characteristics of good Design
- Implements all explicit requirements.
- Accommodates implicit requirements.
- It should be readable and understandable.
- It should provide a complete picture of the software.
