An Introduction To Programming With <strong>Processing</strong> questions that need to be answered before the implementation of the project can begin. These questions that you derive from planning your project will form the basis for the research that follows planning. Examples of an abstraction, followed by a deconstruction and finally a technical overview of a project plan. 2. Research Addressing the details of how you see your project being implemented should bring certain technical questions to your attention. Questions such as, • What is the target system you would like your software to run on? • Will my software require additional resources such as plug-ins? • Can the software also be distributed for both online and offline usage? These are amongst many questions that you might not be able to answer in your own capacity. The Internet is a seemingly endless resource of information and probably your best bet when it comes to answering these and many other technical questions you can think of. Research might also reveal that the code you are interested in creating might already exist. If the code is distributed under a license that permits you to reuse it, then by all means you are encouraged to do so. It is often said that up to 80 percent of a programmers time is spent maintaining already developed code. What this means is that generally developers will spend a comparatively small amount of their time developing their own code from scratch and far more time A Scalable Software Development Model 26
An Introduction To Programming With <strong>Processing</strong> adapting and modifying already existing code to suit the needs of their projects. Finally researching your project can also reveal useful sources for data acquisition, which will be particularly helpful in the fourth phase of your development model. The various sites on the Internet have vast resources of reusable code 3. Mockup Designs Once you have answered the questions you had about implementing your project consider returning to the notes you created during the first phase of Project Planning. With the new information you have derived through your research, refine your ideas into graphical representations of your program. By now you should have a clearer idea of what your end product should look like. Avoid prematurely designing your project only to realize your goals where not realistic given a particular time-frame or some other design flaw, following this development model in the predetermined order will help avoid such a situation. Use the mockup design phase of software development to start drawing out conceptual sketches of your program, in the form of schematic diagrams that outline the program's flow of control (which we will discuss in more detail in Step 8) and map out the user experience you hope to achieve. If your software is visually oriented you may wish to create more detailed and specific designs of your application, for example by designing an interface for a data visualization program or designing a theme for an online game. Consider how your designs can contribute to making the user's experience more immersive. The design phase of software development can also help to identify and even A Scalable Software Development Model 27
