Answer to Question 1

Software design depends on the source of the programs. For off-the-shelf software, the team must determine candidate products and evaluate them against the requirements. For off-the-shelf with alteration software, the team identifies products to be acquired off-the-shelf and then determines the alterations required. For custom-developed programs, the team produces design documentation for writing program code. For a cloud-based system, one important design decision is where application processing will occur. All can occur on mobile devices, all can occur on cloud servers, or a mixture can be used.
