Understanding the problem:

Clarification of the specifications

• • • What do we need and why

    • Statement of intent/proposal

    • Hardware/software needed for the creation of the project

Performance requirements

• • • Develop considering the capabilities of the device

    • Consider file size limit for device

    • Optimise for chosen device’s specific processing capabilities

Identification of inputs and required outputs

• • • Identify inputs given to the device via user interaction or digital event

    • Given input determine actions carried out by program

    • Determine output observed by viewer based on process carried out

Determine the steps that will solve the problem

• • • Design by thinking of required modules and their requirements

Input Process Output (IPO) diagrams

• • • Identify and determine the;

Inputs: The inputs are the data that you want to be processed in the software application.

Processes: The process that takes place from the input, this usually involves/consists of mathematical working out and shows the logic of the Input action. This should be told in traditional English and not in code

Output: The Output is the outcome of the Input in which can be determined by or influenced by the process
