Software design transforms requirements into a blueprint for implementation.
It describes:
- Architecture
- Components
- Interfaces
- Data
- Algorithms
- Relationships between modules
2. Design Fundamentals
Important design concepts include:
1. Abstraction
Represent essential features while hiding unnecessary details.
2. Modularity
Divide software into smaller independent modules.
3. Information Hiding
Hide internal implementation details from other modules.

Understanding the Component Model
A Component Model is a logical representation of all major components of an Enterprise Information Architecture and the relationships between them. It illustrates how information is collected, integrated, managed, stored, secured, and delivered across the enterprise. Acting as a blueprint, it identifies the major information-related services required to support business operations and decision-making, helping organizations achieve better integration, consistency,

An Operational Model is a representation of how a software system or enterprise application operates in a real-world environment. It describes the interaction between system components, services, users, processes, and resources required to perform business operations efficiently.
Key Characteristics of an Operational Model
- Describes system operations and workflows.
- Defines interactions between services and components.
- Focuses on performance, reliability, and availability.
- Supports scalability and maintainability.
