Documents that are necessary for

Design to begin

: 

Examples: 

• SRS - Software Requirements Specification  - Requirements - These influence the design of the software
• 5.13 - SwDD - Software Design Description- Contains Architecture description - This influences the design of the software
• Planning - Peer Reviews are planned activities. They appear in the plans and schedules for the project
• Requirements - These are the things that are Peer Reviewed
• Architecture Items - These are the things that are Peer Reviewed
• Design items - These are the things that are Peer Reviewed
• Test Plans and Procedures - These are the things that are Peer Reviewed

1.2 Predecessor Activities

Examples: 

Predecessor Activities are performed before Peer ReviewsDesign. These activities produce the work products that will be reviewed. 

• Life Cycle Planning - plans, schedules, estimates, etc.
• Software Architecture 
• Software Design
• Software Testing - plans and procedures

1.3 Outputs

Examples: 

• Design activities are included in the plan and schedules
• Software Requirements - These influence the design of the software
• Software Architecture - These influence the design of the software

1.3 Outputs

1.4 Successor Activities

• Implementation and Unit Testing - Implements the Design into one or more code modules. 
• Preliminary Design Review
• Critical Design Review
• Test Readiness Review
• Operational Readiness Review

1.5 Activity Repetition

Describe what conditions determine if the activity needs to be repeated, such as re-planning after a change in requirements or schedule constraints. 

• Design is always done once. It should be peer reviewed and analyzed by Software Assurance. 
• Design may be reviewed and re-analyzed as often as there are significant changes in architecture or requirements. For example:  
  • Technology changes to the architecture requires changes to the design
  • Customer changes to requirements require changes to the design

1.6 Center Resources From SPAN

Add links to SPAN activity pages that are appropriate for this activity. Use links from the Activity section of the front page. SPAN

Several Centers Process Asset Libraries have materials related to this activity. Related Processes, templates, and other resources may be found in the following Activities in SPAN (available to NASA only).

3. Software Assurance Software Assurance is integral to the performance of all Software Development activities. It includes Process Monitoring as well as Process Analysis.  Process Monitoring - addresses the question, "Is the development team following their processes and producing the expected work products?" Process Analysis - addresses the question, "Are there better ways of performing the processes that would result in the early discovery of defects?" 3.1 Software Assurance Tasks from SWEs Software Assurance Tasks are included in many tab 7 of the SWEs in this activity.  Note For each of the SWEs in this activity (see tab 2 .1 SWEs) populate the table below with the SWE, Requirement, and SA Tasks. The first column is for the SWE number The second column is for the requirement - using the Excerpt Include macro to pull in the Excerpt from the SWE page (excerpt includes the text of the requirement) The third column is for the SA Tasks using the Include Page macro - Each of the SA Tasks for a SWE are child pages under SITE:NASA-STD-8739.8B page  SWE-034 is used below only as an example of how to populate the table. The example below, using SWE-034, should be replaced by the actual SWEs in this activity.
