Documenting release changes in the functional architecture: An analysis of subsequent software releases
Summary
Releasing a subsequent version of a software product imposes a challenge onto the delivering software company to successfully communicate their subsequent software release towards the users. In order to successfully communicate the software company has to use proper documentation for the product. This project proposes to use an architecture description technique to produce functional architecture models, which would describe every subsequent software product release; its functions and features. After the release settings of the case software will be determined, a proper modelling technique will be chosen. The modelling technique will use the internal structure of the case software to produce the functional models. The final functional models will be evaluate by the case company. The main aim of the evaluation will be to determine whether the functional modelling can be used as one of the methods of communicating a subsequent software release.
