The purposes of Analysis & Design discipline are:
- To transform the requirements into a design of the system-to-be.
- To evolve a robust architecture for the system.
- To adapt the design to match the implementation environment, designing it for performance.
Relation to other disciplines
The Analysis & Design discipline is related to other disciplines, as follows:
- The Business Modelling discipline provides a organisational context for the system.
- The Requirements discipline provides the primary input for Analysis and Design.
- The Test discipline tests system designed during Analysis and Design.
- The Environment discipline develops and maintains the supporting artefacts that are used during Analysis and Design.
- The Project Management discipline plans the project, and each iteration (described in an Iteration Plan).
