Assignment 5

Software Detailed Design

Description:

The initial software architecture has been determined to follow the pipeline simulation loop architectural style. In particular, we will use an integrated Model/View architecture (that is the position of the objects on the gameboard is kept by the objects themselves) to implement the pipeline simulation loop architectural style. There will be components that implement the interaction with the user and components that represent the core concepts - in this case the state of the game.

We are now doing detailed design so we are adding classes that implement the concept we found during domain analysis.

We need to make the current design more well defined before we explore additional design

Steps:

1. Start with the existing UML model of the product line.

2. Investigate the Object Constraint Language by downloading the OCL spec.

3. Check out the examples on this page.

4. Select at least three classes in the UML model and write pre/post-conditions for each public method using OCL.

5. Check out sample pre/post-conditions on this page.

This is a 2 person team assignment. Hard copy is due Wednesday, February 26, 2003 no later than 4 pm. Turn in to the CS dept office.

Grading will be based on

1. Completeness

2. Correctness

3. Any value added beyond the basic assignment
