Prior to designing software, it is important to analyze the organization’s functional and nonfunctional requirements for the software application and to understand how the software application will be used within the organization. One approach to understanding the organization’s requirements to move forward with the design phase is to take a functional set of requirements and break them down into pieces that are suitable for engineering design. For this assignment, you will continue the design process by adding the Requirements Analysis and Software Architecture section to the Software Design Document. You will perform an analysis of the functional and nonfunctional requirements based on the organization’s needs and the 3–4 features that you identified in the previous section, and describe the results of your analysis in the form of a use-case diagram. You will also define the high-level design of the software by researching and selecting an appropriate software architecture style to use as the basis for the structure of your software.

The project deliverables are as follows:

• Update the Software Design Document title page with the new date.
• Update the previously completed sections based on instructor feedback.
• Requirements Analysis and Software Architecture
  • Identify and describe the organization’s functional and nonfunctional requirements that are allocated to the 3–4 features you identified in the previous section.
  • Identify 3–4 use cases in the form of a use-case diagram.
    • Briefly describe each of the use cases.
    • Identify and describe the intended actors or users of the software.
  • Identify and describe a software architecture style to use as the basis for your software design project.
    • Include an explanation of why you selected the architectural style.
    • Describe some strengths and weaknesses of the architectural style and how those will impact your software design.
    • Describe the architecture of the software that you are designing in the form of a conceptual model that depicts the high-level structure of the software.
