Architecture Discussion

Hey I know today I am posting a lot of things, but now I have the time. Also this post is about yesterday.

As the application is a web one, we though that a C/S architecture was the best option, and based on what we learned last year we though that our design was a 3-Tier architecture, but yesterday we learnt that it is not a 3-Tier but a 2-Tier. Also, that although the client is part of the architecture, we don't have to refer the client as a component of the architecture because the client is only viewing the code the server is sending.
So the presentation layer is inside the server and it generates the html code for the client.

After that discussion, we have to make changes on the ADD, basically taking out the client component as explained, and other things.

Thinking, we also discussed not to begin the DDD after we have at least a more or less stable version of the ADD with one review, because if we have to make lots of changes in the ADD then the work already done in the DDD would be lost or it could be inconsistent with the changes on the ADD.

So that's what yesterday was about.

We will post our new issues in another moment.

Modifications and problems with the analysis!!

Hello, sorry for the delay in the posting, but we've been very busy making changes. We already had the reviews of the URD and SRD and we realized that we had to make a lot of changes because otherwise our architecture was going to be almost impossible to do.
With the URD we didn't have that many problems, but with the URD, most of the performance constraints had to be changed or modified because we couldn't test them and aso it is almost impossible to implement something to check them.
As those two documents affect all the design process, then we had to plan an urgent get together to fix the problems taking into account the trade-offs of the changes and how to overcome them.

Finally we reached an agreement between the parts in how to change the purpose of some requirements and centre the functionality in important aspects and not adding new ones that the delicious does not have.

So with one week of work we have been able to change the analysis stage and create new and better (based on our point of view) deliverables.

Keep in contact

We have passed to second phase!!

Hello, we are very happy to know that we have passed to second phase in the blog competition. We really though that we had failed based on the survey, but miracles exists.

We will open a new survey for the second stage of the competition, the final decision will be on 31st of December, so either way we pass or not we will post a message wishing happy new year to everyone, lol.

We will try to improve and keep posting the evolution of the project.

Many thanks to those who vote on us, we will have to invite you to something (good thing we don't know who vote for us, haha).

And finally, for the groups that have not passed: you made a great job, you can comment on our blog if you want.
