4. List the major phases of a software product life-cycle from the product inception to its retirement.
5. Define Prototyping and its role in software engineering
Definitions (20 Points)
1- Define UML. Explain its use as well.
2- Software change happens all the time so change management is absolutely essential. Name three fundamental configuration management activities.
3- How would being aligned to CMMi and ISO standards helps in requirement engineering and analysis phase?

Essay Questions (70 Points)
Question 1 (20):
Suppose you are part of a project team who will have to design/develop and deliver a software program that relies on university rankings and student scores to determine which universities and courses are best suited for students opting for an undergraduate degree. To do this, the system must interface with 3rd party providers to determine the school rankings, the students scores from High Schools and their SAT results. The system must be accessed via mobile devices and web browser. In addition, management would like to be able to publish yearly statistical reports of student to school rankings. Finally students may opt to pay for a premium account where they will get guided help towards admission into their desired schools. Obviously, security, performance and reliability are of the utmost importance. The customer requires that they be involved intimately in the development process.
a) Draw a high level Use Case (UC) diagram for the system above. You may make any reasonable assumptions about the other systems that are available and are to be integrated with it.
b) What software/development process model would you select/recommend for the project at
hand? Explain why.
c) Draw/Define a requirements object model (class diagram) for the above system. Document
any assumptions you make to accomplish this.
Question 2 (20):
The executive team for a software development company appoints you to take over the development of a system to track international shipments – clients are located in London and your development team is spread across continents – specifically in these countries: India, US and Ukraine. Additionally, projects in your team are done in short bursts of development and are released incrementally to production. Keep in mind the team members’ time zone constraints.
a) Would SCRUM be a viable solution in this scenario? In your answer define SCRUM and explain why or why not. If feasible, what needs to be in place to make it successful.
b) Perform a high level risk analysis for this project. Be sure to define mitigation techniques.

Question 3 (15):
a) What is the difference between Reference Architectures and Specific System Architectures? In your answer explain what impact Architecture has on the System Requirements and how is it related to design and development.
b) Draw and define a Reference Architecture for the system in Question 1.
c) Draw and define a Specific System Architecture for the system in Question 1.
Question 4 (15):
a) What is difference between Object Oriented Design and Structured Design?
b) When is it appropriate to use each method and why?
c) Define and explain measures you should use to determine the quality of a design.

Conduct research on No Code Frameworks and select one framework of your choice. Use your selected framework to build a prototype for your web application or mobile application for Bernie Dollars for which you developed your UML blue-prints. Take screenshots of your prototype and compile them in a Google Slide for presentation.

What are design patterns?

by | Nov 10, 2022 | Software Engineering

1. What is the difference between a nongenerative and a generative pattern? (5 points)
2. What are design patterns? Explore four security related design patterns, one pattern that
focuses on confidentially, one pattern that focuses on integrity, one pattern that focuses on
availability and a fourth one, that focuses on privacy. Discuss the security problem each of these
patterns solve, the context for which the pattern can be applied to and the forces (constraints,
limitations). (20 points)
3. Consider one of the following interactive applications (20 points)
a. A secure automated course registration system for a university
b. A secure library management system
c. An Internet-based polling booth for public elections
d. A secure home banking system
Develop a user model, design model, mental model, and an implementation model, for any one of
these systems.
4. Develop two additional design principles that “reduce the user’s memory load.” (5 points)

How does it work?

Project Abstract
The recycling Steps is a website that aims to provide recycling services in Riyadh society and foster recycling principles in Saudi Arabia.
The reason for creating a website is to solve of overstock of trash and helps to transform the waste into something reusable.
The website offers to recycle various materials such as plastics, glasses, clothes, cardboard cartons, and paper. The method is that customers’ waste will be delivered to the delivery service, and then it will be transferred as points.
The usage of the website is creating a new account on the website and filling out the information about his/her name, phone number, and email.
How does it work?
The user logs in and makes a reservation and chooses what to want to be recycled. After that, selects the date and h location. Finally, submit the reservation. The website is able to view and cancel orders, using points as rewards.
if you use any references, they should cite in APA style.
Thank you
The requirements are:
1/ Draw sequence diagram ,Component Diagram, and Deployment Diagram for Recycle website project depicting of the system based on the class diagram and entity relationship Diagram (upload files).
2/ each diagram must be followed up with an explained document (how did you do it?)
The diagrams should be an editable file so can edit them if necessary. I encourage you to use a website called: app. diagrams.net. I will upload the files to use in the project.
*Note*
I will upload to you the class diagram, and entity relationship, because it is related to the project and help you fully understand the project. all these diagrams represent the project I am working on
You should answer all the questions.
The work must be free of matches from other sites or students and has no plagiarism.
Thank you
