Explanation: the biggest drawback or problem is a data flow diagram of structure design.

📊 Software Project Management (SPM)
Q. What is the solution for Structural design?
  • (A) the specification model following data flow diagram
  • (B) procedures represented as bubbles
  • (C) specification model is structure chart showing procedure calling hierarchy and flow of data in and out of procedures
  • (D) emphasizing procedural decomposition
💬 Discuss
✅ Correct Answer: (C) specification model is structure chart showing procedure calling hierarchy and flow of data in and out of procedures

Explanation: it is solution to central problem. rest others are problems.

  • (A) transition of problem models to solution models
  • (B) handling of larger and more complex products
  • (C) designing object oriented systems
  • (D) more procedural approach
💬 Discuss
✅ Correct Answer: (B) handling of larger and more complex products

Explanation: it does not account for larger and complex products.

📊 Software Project Management (SPM)
Q. What is followed by the design task?
  • (A) choosing specific classes, operations
  • (B) checking model’s completeness
  • (C) following design task heuristics
  • (D) all of the mentioned
💬 Discuss
✅ Correct Answer: (D) all of the mentioned

Explanation: all of these tasks are followed by a design task.

📊 Software Project Management (SPM)
Q. Which of this analysis are not acceptable?
  • (A) object oriented design is a far better approach compared to structural design
  • (B) object oriented design always dominates structural design
  • (C) object oriented design are given more preference than structural design
  • (D) object oriented uses more specific notations
💬 Discuss
✅ Correct Answer: (B) object oriented design always dominates structural design

Explanation: though object oriented design is considered a far better approach but it never dominates structural approach.

📊 Software Project Management (SPM)
Q. Which of these does not represent object oriented design?
  • (A) it follows regular procedural decomposition in favor of class and object decomposition
  • (B) programs are thought of collection of objects
  • (C) central model represents class diagrams that show the classes comprising a program and their relationships to one another
  • (D) object-oriented methods incorporates structural methods
💬 Discuss
✅ Correct Answer: (A) it follows regular procedural decomposition in favor of class and object decomposition

Explanation: it does not follow regular procedural decomposition.

📊 Software Project Management (SPM)
Q. Explain what is meant by PRODUCT with reference to one of the eight principles as per the ACM/IEEE Code of Ethics ?
  • (A) the product should be easy to use
  • (B) software engineers shall ensure that their products and related modifications meet the highest professional standards possible
  • (C) software engineers shall ensure that their products and related modifications satisfy the client
  • (D) it means that the product designed /created should be easily available
💬 Discuss
✅ Correct Answer: (B) software engineers shall ensure that their products and related modifications meet the highest professional standards possible

Explanation: none.

📊 Software Project Management (SPM)
Q. Identify an ethical dilemma from the situations mentioned below:
  • (A) your employer releases a safety-critical system without finishing the testing of the system
