Padt: Ssad-Streamlined And Component-Based Development Perspective, Activity, And Documentation Transitioning Approach

CBSE (Component-Based Software Engineering) claims to offer a radically new approach to the design, construction, implementation and evolution of software applications. However because of unclear and ambiguous requirements, it is very difficult hence to design and build components successfully. To the contrary, SSAD (Structured Systems Analysis and Design) is considered a pragmatic Requirements Engineering method that can be well documented and educated, therefore represents a pinnacle of the rigorous documentation driven approach.After years of research on software architecture and teaching Capstone Project through SSAD, the authors have realized that there has existed the gap between many aspects throughout SDLC (System Development Life Cycle). This paper presents the PADT framework that provides software engineering with a new transitioning view, and that accommodates multi-systems perspective, developmental activity, and deliverable documentation in support of streamlining SSAD through to CBSE.
