The company makes glass products such as glasses, vases, ornaments, sculptures and bespoke pieces. Furthermore, the organization intends to introduce glassblowing classes and tours of the facility as a way of expanding its business because most customers are interested in the glass manufacturing process.

Therefore, DSDM Atern recommends that key users who understand business objectives should be part of a project team and assigned specific roles and responsibilities so that they work with technical members to produce a solution that focuses on business needs.

Therefore, stakeholders need to agree on important things to be included in a system so that a solution can be delivered within budget and on time. In DSDM Atern, requirements are categorized based on the impact they have on the delivery of the system using MOSCOW rules. The letters MOSCOW stand for Must Have, Should Have, Could Have and Won’t Have this time. Must Have requirements are critical for the final system to work. Should Have requirements are not considered time-critical requirements and can possibly be included within the delivery time frame. Could Have requirements are desirable requirements but the system can still work even if they are not included. Meanwhile, Won’t Have requirements are features which stakeholders may want to have but can be implemented in later versions of a system. For example, requirements which were submitted by TOG Staff need to be prioritized accordingly because they are not all needed for the new system to

Healing spells are needed in everyday life, and if we were to ask someone how many healing spells they 've used in their lifetime, the number would probably be too high to remember. I also learned that mental illnesses are not one-spell-cure-all diseases, which is very helpful to know.

In Schools, books are banned from things like foul language, sexual content, of just speaking about things parents or the school board may not like.

  • We Must Cultivate Our Garden Analysis

    381 Words  | 2 Pages

    In class we had a discussion about the final of the chapter of the book, Candide, where Candide said, “We must cultivate our garden.” In our class discussion we talked about what could Candide possibly mean by this statement. To me what this statement was a response throughout all the events he encountered during his adventure to Cunegonde and although it wasn’t said, it was implied that he also wanted an answer to deal with life. The reason I say this is because in the novel we meet Pangloss the philosopher of optimism and he was Candide’s mentor, being that he was Candide’s mentor of course Candide would follow Pangloss’s words. However, Pangloss’s words of optimism seems to have fallen through because with each and every event Candide encounters there were not of great outcomes, for example, when Candide was infatuated with Cunegonde in the castle, they ended up kissing, but as for Candide he got kicked out of the castle.

Much of the older generation is suffering psychologically from the effects of residential schools, where their culture was taken from them. The younger generations in return feel no ties to their past as they were raised by people who feelings towards it were conflicted as they spent years being abused and told that their culture was wrong. As an author, one of their main roles is to convey a message.

    Combining views By adopting layers as the basic component of work assignment and implementation, we will combine the allocation views (implementation and work assignment) with module views (decomposition) for each stakeholder. Before the work assignment is assigned a value it is important to know which module is allocated to which layer. This way module decomposition and layers go along with each other and by making this decision it reduces three views from the system architecture. Rationale Reason behind choosing the component and connector view is to display the concurrent process execution between the system components.
