Process

Thunderforce is presently in its requirements elicitation stage. At this time, the following process is planned, though this can easily change as needed. This process is loosely based on Anthony Lattanze's Architecture-Centric Development Methodology (ACDM).

1. Requirements elicitation
2. Quality attributes
3. Requirements prioritization and project scope
4. Notional architecture
5. Experiments
6. Architectural review and refinement
7. Module planning
8. Module test creation
9. Module authoring and unit testing
10. Module integration testing
11. Releases
