...Dynamic Model for COTS Glue Code Development and COTS Integration Wook K. Kim and Jongmoon Baik Department of Computer Science University of Southern California {wookkyuk,jobaik}@usc.edu 1. Introduction 1.1 Problem Statement and Description One of the most significant changes in the software development area is the trend of building systems incorporating pre-existing software, with special emphasis upon the use of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) software components. COTS describes software commercially available as stand-alone products and which offer specific functionality needed by a larger system into which they might be incorporated. The purpose of using COTS is to lower overall development costs with involving less development time by taking advantage of existing, market-proven, and vendor supported products. But we have no control over the functionality, performance, and evolution of COTS products since their Black-Box nature. Besides, most COTS products are not designed to interoperate with each other and most COTS vendors do not support glue code (sometimes called glueware and binding code). So, most software development teams that use COTS components have difficulties in estimating effort and schedule for COTS glue code development and integration of them into application systems. Without the glue code, the components would be un-integratable and COTS-based systems can be difficult to comprehend, less evolvable than intended, and less reliable ...

First, the overall scope of the design effort is described. Much of the information presented here is derived from the System Specification and the analysis model (Software Requirements Specification). Next, the data design is specified. Database structure, any external file structures, internal data structures, and a cross reference that connects data objects to specific files are all defined. The architectural design indicates how the program architecture has been derived from the analysis model. In addition, structure charts are used to represent the module hierarchy (if applicable).

...tools and systems that operate together throughout the organization becomes a huge benefit. Having easy access, gives the edge to companies, provides for better productivity and cost effectiveness. In order to know the criteria for a system the system requirements has to be determined. The first process in system development is requirement analysis and definition. This enables the breakdown of the functional and non-functional requirements that paints a clear framework to the system development (Rouse, 2012). Technology requirements, stakeholders, and businesses have a viable part in the process of analysis process. There are four activities involved in the analysis process, the first is elicitation activity, is the collecting of information and understanding the needs of the stakeholder and articulating high-level requirements. The analysis activity, determines clarity, and if the system is free of any contradictions, defines techniques to combat the issues. Specification activity is where the behavior of a system is a developing stage. Then there is the validation activity that involves sessions with users, stakeholders, and other experts to help to wing out issues and conflicting requirements before the projects moves to development (Johannesson & Perjons, 2013). “When future design efforts involving system upgrades or enhancements are analyzed, Fit/Gap analysis activities are often performed to understand the differences between current and proposed systems or applications...

...are nine parts to the system analysis and design life cycle. The first three stages are about gathering information. The first part of the cycle is initiation. This is when someone identifies a need or an opportunity. The second part of the cycle is the system concept development, which defines the scope or the boundary of the concepts. Next is the planning stage. During this stage the project management plan and other planning documentation is developed. This will be the basis for acquiring the resources needed to achieve a solution. The next three stages are about the actual design. The fourth stage is the requirements analysis. This is where the functional requirements document is created in which user needs are analyzed and user requirements are developed. The fifth stage, which is self-explanatory, is the design stage. This is where the systems design documents are created from the detailed requirements, focusing on how to deliver the required functionality. The sixth stage is the development stage. This is the part where the design is transformed into a complete information system. The final three stages are where everything comes together. During the integration and testing stage the developed system are tested to see if they perform as designed. Stage eight is implementation. This includes the implementation preparation and the implementation of the system into a production environment and the solution to any of the problems found in the integration and testing stage.

...technology which is why the AIR Force, Navy, and Marines have all participated in the F35 program as well as an International community from the UK, Italy, Norway, Netherlands, Turkey, Canada, Australia, and Denmark. The primary contractor for the F35 program is Lockheed Martin, while Northrup Grumman and BAE systems have also been major contributors to the technology and advancement of the program. As it reads on the JSF website “The focus of the program is affordability -- reducing the development cost, production cost, and cost of ownership of the JSF family of aircraft.” This statement along with defining the F35 program as a system and as a whole will be the main topic of this research paper. A system is defined as a group of elements, components and attributes working together to perform some kind of function. The JSF program as a system has many elements known as Integrated Product teams (IPT) s which work together to perform the end function of producing and maintaining the F35 multi role fighter. The JSF program has 16 components or IPT’S each with their own sub-systems which keep the system operational and sustainable at all times. In October 2001 the system design and development plan began for the F35 program which marked...

...Design Activities-Written Assignment4 Benjamin Torrales Thomas Edison State College Abstract The purpose of this document is to further understand the different activities that are performed during the Design Phase of the Software Development Life Cycle. Design Activities are done in parallel and is composed of Network Integration, Application Architecture and Software, User Interfaces, System Interfaces, Database Integration, Design Details, and Integration of System Controls (Satzinger, Jackson, Burd 2008, pg. 330). One should take into consideration that some of the details utilize in Design Activities are output of the System Analysis Phase (Satzinger, Jackson, Burd 2008, pg. 330). Furthermore each of the activities will generate a blueprint for the final design documents (Satzinger, Jackson, Burd 2008, pg. 330). Design Activities-Written Assignment 4 Introduction Design Activities utilizes a lot of the outputs generate by the Analysis Activities (Satzinger, Jackson, Burd 2008, pg. 330). It is during the Design Activities that a detail system is drawn and this is when a specific technology is recommended (Satzinger, Jackson, Burd 2008, pg. 330). Every activity in this phase becomes part of the final design and part of the design document (Satzinger, Jackson, Burd 2008, pg. 330). The Design activities is composes of seven different tasks that are executed at the same time in the Design Activities phase (Satzinger, Jackson, Burd 2008, pg. 330).
