PROBLEM-SOLVING

STRATEGIES
PROBLEM-SOLVING
STRATEGIES
Problem-solving strategies in software design
refer to the methods, techniques, and approaches
used by software designers to identify, analyze, and
resolve issues that arise during the software
development process.
IMPORTANCE OF PROBLEM-
SOLVING STRATEGIES
Problem-solving strategies are critical in software design
because they enable developers to effectively and efficiently solve
complex problems and create software that meets the needs of
their users. Here are some reasons why problem-solving
strategies are important in software design:

Identify and Define the Problem


Efficiency and Accuracy
Collaboration
User Experience
Adaptability
SOFTWARE DESIGN
PROCESS
SOFTWARE DESIGN
PROCESS
The software design process refers to the
systematic approach of defining the
architecture, components, interfaces, and
other important aspects of software
systems.
PHASES OF SOFTWARE
DESIGN PROCESS
The software design process involves the creation of a plan or blueprint for a
software system. This process typically involves the following:

Requirements Gathering
Analysis and Specification
Detailed Design
Implementation
Testing and Verification
Deployment and Maintenance

ENCAPSULATION
HIDING DATA AND COMPLEXITY

Encapsulation is used to hide the values or

state of a structured data object inside a

class, preventing unauthorized parties'

direct access to them.

LETS GET STARTED


POLYMORPHISM
Polymorphism is a feature of object-

oriented programming languages

that allows a specific routine to use

variables of different types at

different times.
CLASS AND OBJECT

DIAGRAMS
A Class diagram shows your classes and their

relationships. An Object Model Diagram

shows the interaction between objects at

some point, during run time. A Class

Diagram will show what the Objects in your

system consist of (members) and what they

are capable of doing (methods) mostly static.
