Software Design

This section should contain a complete description of the high level design for your project. It should depict the overall architecture of your system. If your system is based on a traditional approach, you should have a structure chart identifying the control hierarchy of the modules in your system. If you take an object-oriented approach, you should show appropriate UML diagrams. In either case you should provide for each of the methods/functions of your system the following information:

· A processing narrative

· An interface description (input and output arguments)

· Global data structures accessed

· Modules called

Additionally, all databases and other data structures used by the system should be described.
