What makes a quality design? 2
The Design Process
Design is an iterative process to
translate requirements into a
“blueprint”
3
Design and Software
Quality
The design must implement all of the explicit
requirements contained in the analysis model,
and it must accommodate all of the implicit
requirements desired by the customer.
The design must be a readable, understandable
guide for those who generate code and for those
who test and subsequently support the software.
The design should provide a complete picture of
the software, addressing the data, functional, and
behavioral domains from an implementation
perspective
4
Design Quality Criteria
A design should exhibit an architecture
(1) has been created using recognizable architectural styles or
patterns,
(2) is composed of components that exhibit good design
characteristics
(3) can be implemented in an evolutionary fashion
A design should be modular; that is, the software should be
logically partitioned into elements or subsystems
A design should contain distinct representations of data,
architecture, interfaces, and components.
A design should lead to data structures that are appropriate
for the classes to be implemented and are drawn from
recognizable data patterns.
5
Design Quality Criteria
contd.
A design should lead to components that
exhibit independent functional characteristics
A design should lead to interfaces that reduce
the complexity of connections between
components and with the external
environment
A design should be represented using a
notation that effectively communicates its
meaning
A design should be derived using a repeatable
method driven by information obtained during
requirement analysis 6

Architecture
“The overall structure of the software and the ways in
which that structure provides conceptual integrity for a
system.”
Structural properties. This aspect of the architectural design representation
defines the components of a system (e.g., modules, objects, filters) and the manner
in which those components are packaged and interact with one another. For
example, objects are packaged to encapsulate both data and the processing that
manipulates the data and interact via the invocation of methods
Extrafunctional properties. The architectural design description should address
how the design architecture achieves requirements for performance, capacity,
reliability, security, adaptability, and other system characteristics.
Families of related systems. The architectural design should draw upon
repeatable patterns that are commonly encountered in the design of families of
similar systems. In essence, the design should have the ability to reuse
architectural building blocks.
13
Pattern
s
Design Pattern Template
Pattern name—describes the essence of the pattern in a short but expressive name
Intent—describes the pattern and what it does
Alsoknownas—lists any synonyms for the pattern
Motivation—provides an example of the problem
Applicability—notes specific design situations in which the pattern is applicable
Structure—describes the classes that are required to implement the pattern
Participants—describes the responsibilities of the classes that are required to implement
the pattern
Collaborations—describes how the participants collaborate to carry out their
responsibilities
Consequences—describes the “design forces” that affect the pattern and the potential
tradeoffs that must be considered when the pattern is implemented
Related patterns—crossreferences related design patterns

for a specific software design?

Information Hiding
module • algorithm
controlled
interface • data structure
• details of external interface
• resource allocation policy
clients "secret"
a specific design decision
17
Why Information
Hiding?
reduces the likelihood of “side effects”
limits the global impact of local design
decisions
emphasizes communication through
controlled interfaces
discourages the use of global data
leads to encapsulation—an attribute of
high quality design
results in higher quality software

Stepwise
Refinement
open
walk to door;
reach for knob;
open door; repeat until door opens
turn knob clockwise;
walk through; if knob doesn't turn, then
close door. take key out;
find correct key;
insert in lock;
endif
pull/push door
move out of way;
end repeat
19
Effective Modular Design
Functional Independence
Is achieved by single-minded
development
Is measured by two qualitative
criteria
Cohesion
Coupling
20
Functional
Independence
COHESION the degree to which a
module performs one and only one
function.
COUPLING the degree to which a
module is "connected" to other
modules in the system.

Refactorin
g
Fowler defines refactoring in the following
manner:
"Refactoring is the process of changing a
software system in such a way that it does not
alter the external behavior of the code [design]
yet improves its internal structure.”
When software is refactored, the existing
design is examined for
redundancy
unused design elements
inefficient or unnecessary algorithms
poorly constructed or inappropriate data
structures
or any other design failure that can be 23
OO Design
Concepts
Design classes
Entity classes
Boundary classes
Controller classes
Inheritance—all responsibilities of a
superclass is immediately inherited by all
subclasses
Messages—stimulate some behavior to
occur in the receiving object
Polymorphism—a characteristic that
greatly reduces the effort required to 24
Design
Classes
Analysis classes are refined during design to become entity
classes
Boundary classes are developed during design to create
the interface (e.g., interactive screen or printed reports)
that the user sees and interacts with as the software is
used.
Boundary classes are designed with the responsibility of

Conventional approach …
case of graphtype:
if graphtype = linegraph then DrawLineGraph (data);
if graphtype = piechart then DrawPieChart (data);
if graphtype = histogram then DrawHisto (data);
if graphtype = kiviat then DrawKiviat (data);
end case;
All of the graphs become subclasses of a general class called graph.
Using a concept called overloading, each subclass defines an
operation called draw. An object can send a draw message to any
one of the objects instantiated from any one of the subclasses. The
object receiving the message will invoke its own draw operation to
create the appropriate graph.

Framework
s
A framework is not an architectural
pattern, but rather a skeleton with a
collection of “plug points” (also called
hooks and slots) that enable it to be
adapted to a specific problem
domain.
