  • How Era Develops Software
    How eRA Develops Software Executive Summary: In an organized, iterative, carefully documented manner, eRA has built a dense infrastructure of methodology, standards, and procedures to underpin the development of a reliable enterprise system for electronic research administration. For software development and quality assurance, NIH has relied thus far solely on contractors. Now the retirement of the legacy IMPAC system is freeing up NIH programmers to join the development team. eRA’s methodology combines the classical Waterfall method and the prototype-oriented Spiral method. It proceeds in three phases: 1. Definition Phase: systems analysis and software development analysis; 2. Development Phase: software design, code generation, and testing; and 3. Maintenance Phase: perfective maintenance and other kinds of maintenance, documentation, and training. To capture the needs of users at every step, eRA employs focus groups, user groups, and the group advocates. Key features of the process are the use of database and tools technology from Oracle and reliance on a strongly modular approach that permits systematic upgrading of modules on a regular basis. End Summary ***** For eRA, developing software is a mission-critical business. With some 576,000,000 transactions taking place annually in IMPAC II and Commons, the functioning of NIH’s extramural grant and contract system relies on a dependable and effective software development process. eRA has built a dense project infrastructure (see figure) to ensure the overall integrity of the system. Other features of the project also contribute: •= for database technology, we rely on Oracle, a leading vendor with robust products; •= our strongly modular approach has enabled us better to target the needs of particular user groups while reducing the complexity of each piece of the project; and •= we have moved ever farther toward empowering users and involving them at every step.

The management citizen database is Improper and not up-to-date will results decisions that are not strategic for the village development process. Inappropriate citizen data also results in long-term ineffective local government planning processes. Such as the problem of forecasting or predicting the level of growth of citizens as well as the need for development services which are part of the medium-term long-term plans of local governments. Therefore they need requires a citizen database information system. In connection with the needs of citizen database information systems, this study provides a solution of analysing documents, namely the requirement specification software for citizen database information systems using the ISO / IEC / IEEE 29148 edition of 2011.

It is a complex process to develop modern and professional software today. This document tries to give a brief overview of Software Development. This document tries to focus on a practical approach regarding Software Development. So why do we need System Engineering? Here are some key factors: • Understand Customer Requirements o What does the customer needs (because they may not know it!) o Transform Customer requirements into working software • Planning o How do we reach our goals? o Will we finish within deadline? o Resources o What can go wrong? • Implementation o What kind of platforms and architecture should be used? o Split your work into manageable pieces iii • Quality and Performance o Make sure the software fulfills the customers’ needs We will learn how to build good (i.e. high quality) software, which includes: • Requirements Specification • Technical Design • Good User Experience (UX) • Improved Code Quality and Implementation • Testing • System Documentation • User Documentation • etc. You will find additional resources on this web page: http://www.halvorsen.blog/documents/programming/software_engineering/ iv Information about the author: Hans-Petter Halvorsen The author currently works at the University of South-Eastern Norway.

In the rest of the paper, we will use the term In large software systems the identification and proper dependencies to refer to interconnection relationships and management of interdependencies among the pieces of a constraints among components of a software system. system becomes a central concern. Nevertheless, most As design moves closer to implementation, current design traditional programming languages and tools focus on and programming tools increasingly focus on components, representing components, leaving the description and leaving the description of interdependencies among management of interdependencies among components components implicit, and the implementation of protocols implicit, or distributed among the components. This paper for managing them fragmented and distributed in various identifies a number of problems with this approach and parts of the system. At the implementation level, software proposes a new perspective for designing software, which systems are sets of source and executable modules in one or elevates the representation and management of component more programming languages. Although modules come interdependencies to a distinct design problem. A core under a variety of names (procedures, packages, objects, element of the perspective is the development of design clusters etc.), they are all essentially abstractions for handbooks, which catalogue the most common kinds of components. interconnection relationships encountered in software systems, as well as sets of alternative coordination Most programming languages directly support a small set of protocols for managing them.

Eisele Assistant Research Scientist E-mail: [email protected] of the Texas Transportation Institute The Texas A&M University System College Station, Texas 77843-3135 Phone (409) 845-6002 Fax (409) 845-6008 and Jyh C. Liu Assistant Professor Department of Computer Science Texas A&M University E-mail: [email protected] Paper Prepared for Presentation and Publication at the North American Travel Monitoring Exhibition and Conference NATMEC 98 Charlotte, North Carolina May 1998 Note: This paper was originally presented at the Transportation Research Board’s 77th Annual Meeting, January 1998, Washington, DC. The paper will also be published in a forthcoming Transportation Research Record. ABSTRACT The intelligent transportation system (ITS) components being deployed in U.S. urban areas are producing vast amounts of data. These ITS data are often used for real-time operations and then discarded. Few transportation management centers (TMCs) have any mechanism for sharing the data resources among other transportation groups or agencies within the same jurisdiction. Meanwhile, transportation analysts and researchers often struggle to obtain accurate, reliable data about existing transportation performance and patterns. This paper presents the development of an ITS data management system (referred to as ITS DataLink) that is used to store, access, analyze, and present data from the TransGuide center in San Antonio, Texas. Data outputs are both tabular and graphical in nature. There are no user costs associated with system except for an Internet connection.

ABSTRACT The primary purpose of this thesis is to aid the database manage- ment system (DBMS) evaluation process by providing an example in a real-life setting - the design and implementation of a DBMS-based hospital information system. A guideline is presented in whose context the capabilities of a specific package, Generalized Information Management (GIM-II), are examined in detail. These capabilities are then evaluated in light of the requirements of a hospital information system. The design and implementation of a medical database and such hospital applications as patient scheduling and pharmacy are investigated. It is concluded that the GIM-II system can support a hospital information system. Thesis Supervisor: Stuart E. Madnick Title: Associate Professor of Management ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to Professor Stuart Madnick for his guidance and extreme patience in supervising this thesis. I am indebted to my parents for their continued support, both financial and spiritual, throughout my academic years.
