1. Architecture Notebook (40 marks)

Analyse the Case Study documents and develop a candidate architecture to meet the functional and non-functional requirements you have identified in Assignment 1 and the system wide requirements identified in Task 1. Document this candidate architecture in an Architectural Notebook. Use the template provided in the Resources/Assignment 2 section of the subject Interact site. Make sure the architectural notebook addresses:

i) The key concerns driving the overall architecture. (These should correspond with the 3-5 most important NFRs you identified.)

ii) Any assumptions and dependencies that affect the architecture.

iii) Any architecturally significant requirements. (E.g. a requirement for persistent data may require access to a database)

iv) Decisions, constraints, and justifications that shape the architecture.

v) Architectural mechanisms used to implement requirements (e.g a database or XML file to implement a persistence requirement)

vi) Any architectural frameworks or patterns that will be applied

1. Component Diagram (15 marks)

Document your proposed architecture with a high level logical view showing functional and technical components in a component diagram.

1. Deployment Diagram (15 marks)

Document how your proposed architecture maps to the intended deployment environment with a deployment diagram showing how your functional and technical components will be distributed over hardware nodes.
