Chapter 2, Problem 2.1E
Explanation of Solution
A system to control anti-lock braking in a car:
- The most appropriate generic software process model for controlling anti-lock braking in a car is Waterfall model.
- The anti-lock braking is a safety-critical system.
- In the waterfall model, for the proper functioning of the anti-lock braking system of the car, the analysis and design requirements must be scheduled without any flaws before the system implementation.
A virtual reality system to support software maintenance:
- The most appropriate generic software process model for a virtual reality system to support software maintenance is Incremental development.
- The system requirements keeps on changing and it cannot be predicted before the implementation and it requires complex
programming for the software. - This software is not a critical system.
A University accounting system that replaces an existing system:
- The most appropriate generic software process model for a University accounting system that replaces an existing system is Waterfall model.
- Because of the existing system, the system requirements can be predicted.
- This is mission-critical system and the requirements are stable and reusable.
An interactive travel planning system that helps users plan journeys with the lowest environmental impact:
- The most appropriate generic software process model for an interactive travel planning system is the prototype model and incremental development model.
- The requirements of the user may change and fast delivery is essential to be implemented.
- Therefore, the prototype model will save the development time to focus on essential function first to be later completed.

Although you measure your products in kilograms, you often get orders in both pounds and ounces. You have decided that rather than have to look up conversions all the time, you could use Python code to take inputs to make conversions between the different units of measurement. You will write three blocks of code. The first will convert kilograms to pounds and ounces. The second will convert pounds to kilograms and ounces. The third will convert ounces to kilograms and pounds. The conversions are as follows: 1 kilogram = 35.274 ounces 1 kilogram = 2.20462 pounds 1 pound = 0.453592 kilograms 1 pound = 16 ounces 1 ounce = 0.0283 kilograms 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds For the purposes of this activity the template for a function has been provided. You have not yet covered functions in the course, but they are a way of reusing code. Like a Python script, a function can have zero or more parameters. In the code window you…arrow_forward
