the design phase: factors to be considered when desiging the process requirements,”the processing reuqirements of the system are simply the steps the program will need to perform to organize the data collected into the form the final output requires. the programmer needs to idenfity what manipulation will need to take place, and where in the program it will need to occur. Furthermore the programmer will need to identify where the steps need to be repeated to recude the amount of code needed. For example, the solution invovles a database
the programmer will have to know which fields are to be linked and in which tables data is to be stored.”
