11 Notion of a Project Notes from OOSE Slides – modified These are essentially from Chapter 1. Read/review carefully and understand. Software Engineering Projects Many projects are evolutionary or maintenance projects, involving work on legacy systems Corrective (remedial) projects: fixing defects Adaptive projects: changing the system in response to changes in Operating system Database Rules and regulations Enhancement projects: adding new features for users Reengineering or perfective projects: changing the system internally so it is more maintainable Software Engineering Projects ‘Green field’ projects New development The minority of projects Software Engineering Projects Projects that involve building on a framework or a set of existing components. The framework is an application that provides many features but is missing some important details (on purpose). Such projects: Involve plugging together components that are: Already developed – but may need tailoring! Provide significant functionality. Benefit from reusing reliable software. Provide much of the same freedom to innovate found in green field development. Activities Common to Software Projects Requirements and specification Includes Domain analysis (must understand the business / scientific environment within which your application will be running and providing support!) Defining the problem (to be accommodated…) Requirements gathering Obtaining input from as many sources as possible Requirements analysis Organizing the information Requirements specification Capturing how the software should behave Likely contains a Domain Model Interviewing the Client What is your vision for the Application? How will it be used? Who will be the end users? Their characteristics? What will the inputs be? What will the outputs be? What are the expected processes? What kind of interface do you envision? What kind of storage structures are needed? Reliability? Scalability? Platforms? IT constraints? Languages, devel
