Software design

1. Introduction Usability and responsiveness is crucial in software design. According to ISO 9241-210, usability is the “degree to which a product or system can be used by specified users to achieve specified goals with effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction in a specified context of use” [1]. In particular, the software interface should promote learnability, understandability, and operability [2]. Responsiveness corresponds to the amount of time required to complete an action after the user gives an input. This document outlines the strengths of three different geographic information systems softwares in terms of usability and responsiveness. These strengths are sources of inspiration for the proposal part of this document, which discusses…

CS457-1801A-01: Software Design Unit: Software Design Process Dr. Howard Evans Colorado Technical University Larry Bargers January 19, 2018 Software design concepts give developers a set of fundamental and sophisticated architectures to help organize logic throughout the software development phase. Developing can often be a cumbersome process that can eased by leveraging modern concepts which includes abstraction, modularity, refinement and software architecture. With the ever changing…

1. Introduction This investigation was conducted for the purposes of finding out the software that Jasmax- a largest and longest establish architectural and design company- used for managing their work. By research on the internet, I will indicate in this report the sort of software that this architect company use or suggest the software that they likely to use as well as point out what type of user will utilize that particular software. 2. Company profile Jasmax is a private enterprise type…

Software process may be termed as a set of activities that are required to develop a software system. Software process model is a representation of a process. It is used to present descriptions of processes form particular perspectives. The waterfall model it is a separate and distinct phase of specification and development. Phases involved are requirements analysis and definition, system and software design, implementation and unit testing, integration and system testing, operation and…

9. Architecting and Designing Software Process of design In terms of software engineering, design can be described as a process to overcome problems that can arise within the proposed system’s functional requirements and the constraints set to ensure quality. All these problems must then be solved whilst keeping in mind the 11 principles of software design. Underneath the overlying problem lies a set of sub-problems that exist within the proposed system design. It can be said that these…

CAD is a major part for a garments industry. In this department they create pattern/ marker as per sample or buyers requirement. CAD or Computer-aided design has brought a revolution in the Textile Industry. The time consuming and cumbersome process of textile designing has been made easier by CAD. Now thoughtful and innovative designs are available to the textile designers and textile manufacturers at the click of a mouse. When the products in pre-manufacturing stage are designed with the help…

Reading question 1: 1. CH4 exercise question 1: One activity is critical to me and needs to be added to the “code-and-fix model”[1] is the design review. This design review should be added after Problem statement and before Code. It could be done by the software engineer himself, or the software engineer could also invite others to review his design. This is important since we will spend less effort to find design bugs if we filter those bugs as early as possible. From the Tartan case study[2],…

This would ensure that I don 't develop any problems in the later stages. The improvements I could have made using the mind map is whilst creating the hand drawn design to create it on an A3 paper instead of A4 as it would have appeared to be neater, even though it was a plan. However, now I know what to do next time when I create a plan. Above all, the improvements I developed is to have a number of copies whether using open mind or hand drawing the design. I ensured I either print or photo…

a specific branch of engineering that deals with mechanisms. Michigan Technological University defines it as the application of the principles and problem-solving techniques of engineering from design to manufacturing to the marketplace for any object. The principles that mechanical engineers use are those of mathematics and physics. They apply these and the…

Since theatre first became popular in the times of the Greek, the use of sound to enhance theatrical experience has been prominent. However, many leaps have been made since then to improve a sound designer’s abilities to create different and intricate sounds in their design processes. The evolution of sound playback systems is a key element in the development of sound design in theatre. Through exploration of the history of sound playback, the current available playback systems on the market and…
