A Simple Example: A Home SecuritySystem Design Procedure: Step 2 Home Security System Main Monitor Sensor Executive Asynch. Invocation User Interaction Executive ATM Design Example Recall first the ATM analysis, and use it to develop a design SOFTWARE DESIGN (SWD) Instructor: Dr. Hany H. Ammar Dept. of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, WVU OUTLINE Introduction TO Software Design (SWD) and the SW Design Description (SDD) document Software Design Criteria Software Design Methodologies Structured Design for (SD) Software Using ICASE Software Design MethodologiesStructured Design Following the structured analysis and object-oriented analysis methodologies used in the requirements phase, Design methodologies consist of - Structured Design a) Produces a design that can be implemented in structured programming languages such as C b) characterized by the development of structured hierarchy of modules specified using Structure Charts (SCs) Software Design MethodologiesStructured Design SCs are used for modeling the partitioning/grouping of data/control functions defined in the specifications into modules, using the software design criteria The hierarchical organization of these modules, and the data/control interfaces between them are defined in the SC Each module declared in the SC must be accompanied by a module specification (M-specs). The pre/post conditions, and algorithms specified using a design description language or a flow chart Software Design MethodologiesStructured Design Software Design MethodologiesStructured Design SCs are developed from specifications represented by structured analysis graphs (DFDs/CFDs, C-specs, etc.) C-Specs is mapped to in the upper-level modules in the SC, since they are responsible for controlling the decisions and the activities in the lower levels modules, The controller Control_Transaction in the previous slide is mapped to the upper-level module controlling the execution of
