Such components include bandwidth, which includes maximum page size and modem speed; multimedia; and browser capabilities. Identify the impact of customer response-time expectations on an application. Identify the impact of scalability on the solution. Identify tradeoffs between performance requirements and available technology. Identify tradeoffs between performance and portability in the selection of a Web browser and a Web server.	¤
Analyze maintainability requirements. Identify the requirements for ongoing updates and distribution of the application.
Analyze extensibility requirements. Identify the impact of an increase in the number of end users, the growth of an organization, and an increase in the functionality of the application. Identify the impact of an increase in data.
Analyze availability requirements. Identify the level of availability required. Identify the geographic area to be covered. Assess the impact of downtime on end users.
Analyze requirements that include such human factors as target audience, localization, accessibility, roaming users, online Help, and special needs. Identify localization requirements, including target languages. Identify accessibility needs, including alternate text site, tab order, and text-only links. Analyze documentation and online Help requirements. Identify the impact of various connectivity solutions on the application. Identify constraints due to the environment, for example, 640 x 480 screen resolution and Internet versus intranet.
Analyze the requirements for integrating a Microsoft Visual InterDev solution with existing applications. Identify the location of existing data. Identify the format of existing data. Identify all migration considerations. Identify data conversion requirements.	¤
Analyze Web site development requirements. Identify the number of Web developers and content authors needed to develop and initially implement the solution, and identify how the team will be staffed. Identify the security levels needed for each type of development role. Identify hardware and software needs for the development team.	¤
Defining the Technical Architecture for a Solution
Given a business scenario, identify which solution type is appropriate. Solution types are single-tier, two-tier, and n-tier.	•
Identify which technologies are appropriate for implementation of a given business solution. Select the appropriate development tools to use. Identify which products and technologies are appropriate for implementation.	¤
Choose a data storage architecture. Considerations include volume; number of transactions per time slice; number of connections or sessions; scope of business requirements; extensibility requirements; reporting requirements; and number of users.
Test the feasibility of a proposed technical architecture. Demonstrate that business requirements are met. Meet existing technology constraints. Assess the impact and tradeoffs that result if a specific requirement is not met.
Developing the Conceptual and Logical Design
Construct a conceptual design that is based on a variety of scenarios and that includes context, workflow process, task sequence, and physical environment models.
Given a conceptual design, apply the principles of modular design to derive the components and services of the logical design.
Incorporate business rules into object design.
Designing a User Interface and User Services
Identify the logical sequence of information flow to the user. Identify an appropriate navigational scheme for a Web site that reflects the information flow.	¤
Identify input validation procedures that should be integrated into the user interface. Identify which type of script to use: server-side or client-side. Compare VBScript and JavaScript.	•
Evaluate methods of providing user assistance.
Use the Visual InterDev WYSIWYG page editor to construct a prototype user interface that is based on business requirements, user interface guidelines, and the organization’s standards.	¤
