$. Design Considerations
%his section describes many of the issues which need to be addressed or resolved before attempting to devise a complete design solution"
$.1 %ssu!ptions
&escribe any assumptions or dependencies regarding the software and its use" %hese may concern such issues as'
(elated software or hardware )perating systems *nd+user characteristics Possible and,or probable changes in functionality
0ardware or software environment *nd+user environment 1vailability or volatility of resources .tandards compliance 2nteroperability re3uirements 2nterface,protocol re3uirements &ata repository and distribution re3uirements .ecurity re3uirements or other such regulations) 4emory and other capacity limitations Performance re3uirements 5etwor6 communications 7erification and validation re3uirements testing) )ther means of addressing 3uality goals )ther re3uirements described in the re3uirements specification
(euse of e/isting software components to implement various parts,features of the system #uture plans for e/tending or enhancing the software 9ser interface paradigms or system input and output models) 0ardware and,or software interface paradigms *rror detection and recovery 4emory management policies */ternal databases and,or data storage management and persistence &istributed data or control over a networ6 :enerali!ed approaches to control 4
*ach significant strategy employed should probably be discussed in its own subsection$ or if it is comple/ enough) in a separate design document with an appropriate reference here of course)" 4a6e sure that when describing a design decision that you also discuss any other significant alternatives that were considered$ and your reasons for re<ecting them as well as your reasons for accepting the alternative you finally chose)" .ometimes it may be most effective to employ the =pattern format= for describing a strategy"
). S ste! %rchitecture
%his section should provide a high+level overview of how the functionality and responsibilities of the system were partitioned and then assigned to subsystems or components" &on-t go into too much detail about the individual components themselves there is a subse3uent section for detailed component descriptions)" %he main purpose here is to gain a general understanding of how and why the system was decomposed$ and how the individual parts wor6 together to provide the desired functionality" 1t the top+most level$ describe the ma<or responsibilities that the software must underta6e and the various roles that the system or portions of the system) must play" &escribe how the system was bro6en down into its components,subsystems identifying each top+level component,subsystem and the roles,responsibilities assigned to it)" &escribe how the higher+level components collaborate with each other in order to achieve the re3uired results" &on-t forget to provide some sort of rationale for choosing this particular decomposition of the system perhaps discussing other proposed decompositions and why they were re<ected)" #eel free to ma6e use of design patterns$ either in describing parts of the architecture in pattern format)$ or for referring to elements of the architecture that employ them" 2f there are any diagrams$ models$ flowcharts$ documented scenarios or use+cases of the system behavior and,or structure$ they may be included here unless you feel they are comple/ enough to merit being placed in the Detailed System Design section)" &iagrams that describe a particular component or subsystem should be included within the particular subsection that describes that component or subsystem" 3ote4 %his section and its subsections) really applies only to newly developed or yet+to+be developed) portions of the system" 2f there are parts of the system that already e/isted before this development effort began$ then you only need to describe the pre+e/isting 5
parts that the new parts of the system depend upon$ and only in enough detail sufficient to describe the relationships and interactions between the old parts and the new parts" Pre+e/isting parts that are modified or enhanced need to be described only to the e/tent that is necessary for the reader to gain a sufficient understanding of the nature of the changes that were made"
