Architecture Design

Summary:

You need to submit two assignments: 

1) The Non-Functional Requirements excel sheet. 

2) A summary of your Architectural Design document - what Architecture are you using and why: Thin Client-Server, or Thick Client-Server and why?  2-Tiered, 3-Tiered, or N-tiered and why? This can be a word document or pdf. 

Comments from the Professor on the Architecture design assignment –

This is the architecture design. Again, there are two parts. You have the excel sheet and the Architecture design summary. Essentially you are looking at the various areas of requirements and then putting what your system would need to the best of your imagination, to the best of your abilities. And then along with that, so you're going to turn that in. And so again, what is the summary or what did you deduce from your architecture design? Are you needing a fan or a thick client-server architecture and why, which one would it be and why? And then would you be two-tiered or end tiered? And why that is, what servers do you need? Why do you need a multitiered system architecture for your system? So, It can only be a paragraph or two, but the bulk of the work is going to be the excel sheet. Please again, make sure you're paying attention. The summary is just thinking about what you're coming up with from your requirements. So, if it has to be available for portable devices and Android OS, and obviously you're, you're listening as a thin client and you're also talking multiple servers because you need an application server, you need some type of an inner internet server. And at service, I need some type of database server, because you're not going to be storing or doing a lot on that and client. So that's just an example there.
