SDD
Scenario
You have been asked to lead a software development team to build a system fulfilling the Statement of Need specified in project 1. Your team is employed by a small company. The customer wants a project that balances reasonable development cost, timely delivery, software quality, and functionality.
In this project, you will refine your analysis, scenario and behavioral models from projects 1 by:
Completing this project will require that you produce a software design specification document (SDD) that shows how the system shall be structured to satisfy the requirements described in your SRS. The SDD that you create will have consequences for Projects 3 and 4.
SDD Templates
Please use the IEEE std 1016-1998 to develop your SDD. The IEEE Recommended Practice for Software Design Descriptions, standard 1016 is posted in Course Resources > eReserves. Read this to become familiar with the information required in the SDD. Annex A, figure A.1 gives a sample SDD Table of Contents. Use this as a general outline.
The Assignment
Complete the template as best as you can. Make any reasonable assumptions based on your understanding of the problem that allow you to address as many sections of the SDD template as possible. (Please read the “project descriptions” in the project description section of the syllabus for additional context and information on course projects).
Pay special attention to the following phases of design as you complete the SDD template. The bulk of your grade will be decided on how well you address these issues.
Also please see section 5.6: Design Specification from the online text (Books 24×7: Software Engineering, Second Edition by Bharat Bhushan Agarwal and Sumit Prakash Tayal).
Note that specific sections of the SDD template speak to the above 4 design phases.
A key objective in the design phase is to translate and map the outputs or deliverables from the requirements model into the four design models (See Module 3, Figure 3.8 of the course module commentaries).
Hints and suggestions: At a minimum, I expect:
Make sure your work is neat and legible. Your charts, illustrations and diagrams can be done using any word processing, drawing, and/or software CASE drawing tool (or by hand) as long as it is neat and organized. Embed or scan any diagrams that you create in your SDS document—do not upload them separately.
