Software Engineering - Topic 5

It is a process to transform user requirements into some suitable form, which helps the programmer in software coding and implementation.

It identifies the software as a system with many components interacting with each other.

It breaks the ‘single entity-multiple component’ concept of architectural design into less-abstracted view of sub-systems and modules and depicts their interaction with each other.

This design is more detailed towards modules and their implementations.

It is a technique to divide a software system into multiple discrete and independent modules, which are expected to be capable of carrying out task(s) independently.

It provides capability to the software to execute more than one part of code in parallel to each other.

It is a measure that defines the degree of intra-dependability within elements of a module.

It is a measure that defines the level of inter-dependability among modules of a program.

It is a conceptualization of problem into several well-organized elements of solution.

It is in this software design where the system is comprised of many smaller sub-systems known as functions

This software design works around the entities and their characteristics instead of functions involved in the software system.

This software design approach takes the whole software system as one entity and then decomposes it to achieve more than one sub-system or component based on some characteristics.

This software design approach proceeds with composing higher level of components by using basic or lower-level components.
