eActivity

• Model simulation using an animator makes it convenient to input events and watch the model’s reactions. Watch the video titled SolidWorks 2013: Simulation Sub-Modeling and Incremental Meshing” (2 min 9 s). Be prepared to discuss.

Discussion1

"Requirements Inspection and Validation"Please respond to the following:

• From the e-Activity, examine the possibility that a gap between the animated model and the original specification may exist. Propose how you would detect the gaps.
• Assess the pros and cons of having a large number of reviewers versus having a small number of viewers in the requirements inspection process. Determine whether you would use internal or external reviewers and explain why.

Discussion 2

"Traceability and Change Control"Please respond to the following:

• Suppose a system had no traceability management present. Predict five problems that you believe could occur when change requests are made.
• Suppose you were a project leader. Propose five methods that you would use to manage change requests. Select the method that you think would work best for you and defend your selection.
