1: What are the legal and ethical implications of using COTS software? Of using subcontractors? For example, who is responsible for fixing the problem when the major system fails as a result of a fault in COTS software? Who is liable when such a failure causes harm to the users, directly (as when the automatic brakes fail in a car) or indirectly (as when the wrong information is supplied to another system). What checks and balances are needed to ensure the quality of COTS software before it is integrated into a larger system?
2: Draw a diagram to capture the process of buying an airplane ticket for a business trip.
3: Consider the Software Life-Cycle Models introduced. Which one give you the most flexibility to change in reaction to changing requirements?

5: Even on your student projects, there are significant risks to finishing your project on time. Analyze your software development project and list the risks. What is the risk exposure? What techniques can you use to mitigate each risk?
