enable all the developers to understand the underlying ∙ Classes and Interfaces
architecture of CMS. Logical architecture of JDBC driver, PRE-REQUISITES:
Server, DML, DDL, Session and Data Store are explained.
TARGET AUDIENCE
This Design document is intended to act as a technical reference tool CMS requires Java JRE 1.5 or higher. Since CMS is written
for developers involved in the development of College Management in Java, it can run on any platform that supports the Java
System (CMS).This document assumes that you have sufficient runtime environment 1.5 or higher. The compiled files are
understanding of the following contained in Java Archives (JAR’s) and have to be defined in
the CLASSPATH environment variable.

9. ARCHITECTURAL STRATEGIES:
The architectural design of a software project is simply the
design of the entire software system. This includes the
hierarchy of the modules and also which modules are present
in the system. A good architectural design will create a clear
and fair balance between cohesion (each module has only one
distinct purpose), coupling (no two modules depend
completely on each other), abstraction (seeing
modules in full and not in detail), hierarchy (logical modules
stem from others) and partitioning (logically grouping
modules together) of the software modules
