new design every three hours. Money savings from not having to build a physical yacht. It costs $50,000 per prototype and because silicon graphics lend computer simulation time, simulations were not as expensive Avoid problems of scale-up because models are smaller size and prototypes may not reflect actual issues. Ability to understand trade-offs between differences in designs. Disadvantages: Sponsors want to see a physical prototype, which requires spending money to build the prototype. Simulation

Checkpoint: Week 1 Day 5 OSI Model When we breakdown the OSI model you will see that in the seven layers of the design, a decision is made in the third layer, which WAN protocols operate on is known as the network layer. This layer carries out regular tasks such as pinpointing routings diagrams and end to end addressing. Some layers associate a unit also known as a brouter that works like a bridge and a router. Now on layers two thru four routers and switches work on these layers which are

Analysis and Design with the Unified Process – Satzinger, Jackson, and Burd). It is a conceptual model that is used in project management and describes the stages that are comprised within an information system. One of the oldest models of SDLC is the Waterfall Approach. It is a series of junctures in which the output of each juncture becomes the input for the next. The 7 phases involved in this model are Project Planning, Systems Analysis, Systems Design, Implementation, Integration/Testing, Deployment
