Thursday 9 August 2012


 Following are the multiple choice questions on Software Engineering for various competitive exams point of view.
 
1) In functional decomposition, the data flow diagram ?
  1. is ignored
  2. is partitioned according to the closeness of the datagram and storage items
  3. is partitioned according to the logical closeness of the actigram
  4. Both A and C
  5. None of above
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = C 
Explanation: N/A

2) Which of the following is done in order a data in phase 1 of the system development life cycle ?
  1. Reviewing policies and procedures
  2. Using questionnaires to contact surveys
  3. Conducting Interviews
  4. All of above
  5. None of above
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = D 
Explanation: N/A

3) A graphic representation of an information system is called ?
  1. Flow chart
  2. Pictogram
  3. Data flow diagram
  4. Histogram
  5. None of above
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = C 
Explanation:N/A

4) To avoid errors in transcription and transposition, during data entry the system analyst should ?
  1. Provide for a check digit
  2. Provide for a hash totals
  3. Provide batch totals
  4. All of above
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = D 
Explanation: N/A

5) In the system concepts, the term integration ?
  1. implies structure and order
  2. refers to the manner in which each component functions with other component of the system
  3. means that part of the computer system depend on one another
  4. refers to the holism of system
  5. None of above
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = D 
Explanation: system integration is the bringing together of the component subsystems into one system and ensuring that the subsystems function together as a system. In information technology, systems integration is the process of linking together different computing systems and software applications physically or functionally, to act as a coordinated whole

6) RAD is a linear sequential software development process model. RAD is an acronym for ?
  1. Rapid Application Development
  2. Rapid Action Development
  3. Rough Application Development
  4. Rough Action Development
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = A 
Explanation: Rapid application development (RAD) is a software development methodology that uses minimal planning in favor of rapid prototyping. The "planning" of software developed using RAD is interleaved with writing the software itself

7)  In risk analysis of spiral model, which of the following risk includes ?
  1. Technical
  2. Management
  3. Both A and B
  4. None of these
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = C 
Explanation: N/A

8) The model remains operative until the software is retired  ?
  1. Waterfall
  2. Incremental
  3. Spiral
  4. None of these
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = C 
Explanation: The spiral model is based on continuous refinement of key products for requirements definition and analysis, system and software design, and implementation (the code). At each iteration around the cycle, the products are extensions of an earlier product. This model uses many of the same phases as the waterfall model, in essentially the same order, separated by planning, risk assessment, and the building of prototypes and simulations

9) A quantitative measure of the degree to which a system, component, or process posses a given attribute ?
  1. Measure
  2. Measurement
  3. Metric
  4. None of these
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = C 
Explanation: N/A

10) RAD is not appropriate when ?
  1. Fast finding already done
  2. Technical risks are high
  3. Testing is not needed
  4. None of above
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = B 
Explanation: RAD model may not be useful for large, unique or highly complex projects.This method cannot be a success if the team is not sufficiently motivated and nor is unable to work cohesively together.
