Abstract
The information content of the software design product as needed by various user communities is identified. Definitions of design in classical engineering disciplines are investigated and then applied specifically to the area of software design. The Entity-Relationship model is used to describe the information content of the software design product. All the relationship types and entity types that compose the design product are described in detail. The Military Standard: Defense System Software Development, DOD-STD-2167A, is analyzed to determine how it meets the relationship type requirements.

The first Author is a Graduate Student.
This report is substantially the M.S. thesis of the first*This report is substantially the M.S. thesis of the first author, completed May, 1991.
This thesis is intended for submission to IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering and was prepared using the style specified by that journal. This journal's style is very non-restrictive and so, where no conflict occurs, the University of Missouri-Rolla thesis style is also followed.
