Comprehensive Top-Level Design Document for Software Project

This Top-Level Design (TLD) Document outlines the design goals, architecture, and planning for a software project as envisioned by Dr. Ron Rymon at IDC in January 2004. It includes links to the project proposal, Software Requirements Specification (SRS), architecture details, testing strategies, and a project management framework. Key components such as module specifics, integration tasks, and performance metrics are discussed, ensuring clarity in project responsibilities and timelines. The document serves as a vital resource for development and testing teams.

  1. CS Field ProjectThe Top-Level Design (TLD) Document Dr. Ron Rymon IDC, Herzliya January 2004

  2. Goals • Link from Proposal: Overview the project • Link from SRS: The Requirements and constraints that the design must satisfy • “Solution Architecture” to the level of specific development and integration tasks • “Project Planning” designating schedule and responsibilities • Link to QA: module and system tests (mostly communication and performance) • Link to Programmer Manual: specific APIs, and components

  3. Document Parts • Overview of the Project • Main Requirements and Constraints (SRS) • Product and Software Architecture • Description of Specific Modules • Development and Target Environments • Expected Performance • Testing • Project Plans for Development and Testing

  4. Architecture • Decomposition of the product based on functional, development, and flow considerations • Consider components that are available off-the-shelf • Data flow diagrams • Extensibility and limitations • Merits vs. alternative architectures

  5. Modules and Components • Functionality and interfaces • Main classes, APIs • Implementation details and challenges • Available components and wrapping

  6. Testing • Module tests, based on specified functionality and intended performance • System tests • Tests against SRS use cases and requirements

  7. Project Plans • Use a project management tool • Outline all development / testing tasks • Granularity of 1-2 weeks max • Assign to specific team members • Indicate dependencies and interfaces • Estimate time frames and fit to schedule

  8. Schedule • First Submission – January 25, 2004 • Second Submission and Presentation – one week after receiving comments • For faster progress, or to consult on any issue, feel free to contact me to coordinate a meeting at ANY TIME. • Grading Policy: • Late submissions will receive a penalty of 10 points for every week • Both submissions are graded into the final grade
