Question 2 a Unified Process would be an appropriate choice for this project. Way of Thinking – Unified Process is a predictive and adaptive approach of software development methodology based on object oriented principles. (Satzinger & Others, 2005) It is use case driven approach focused on developing the system incrementally by delivering the captured functional requirements in iterations. (So-Young & Ho-Jin, 2005) Creating different artifacts throughout the development process eliminates the possibility of undefined requirement and miscommunication. (Rational, 1998) Modularity embedded in the process allows developing and delivering of system in components. Maintaining software quality and requirement changes are integral part of process. (Daoudi & Nurcan) (ISQA 8220 Notes) Way of Working – UP is use case driven methodology developing system iteratively and incrementally thereby adding flexibility to process. This flexibility allows us to quickly react and afford frequent changes during development process. (Satzinger & Others, 2005) (Daoudi & Nurcan) Each iteration is a small part of project needed to be developed under four phases – Inception, Elaboration, Construction and Transition. UP defines six disciplines in each phase to better manage iteration. These are - Business modeling, requirements, design, implementation, testing and deployment. (Satzinger & Others, 2005) Every iteration carry out different activities form all discipline and deliver an increment at the end of iteration. Each increment developed during iteration consists of added functionality as compared to previous increment. So, iteration itself is capable of accommodating any design or requirement modification. (Satzinger & Others, 2005) (ISQA 8220 Notes)... ... middle of paper ... ...fied Process also relies on extensive documentation, tight control, re-usability and effective modeling. (Rational, 1998) At PrintAndCopy, current IT department is moderately sized and they rely totally on structured development methods that provide extensive documentation but structured development methods lacks flexibility. Also, structured methodologies are not cost and time effective. So, avoiding a major change in their current development practices yet adding more flexibility in development process UP would be best suited. UP will also allow IT team to re-use the existing developed components contributing to reduction in overall time and cost. (Satzinger & Others, 2005) Also, most of the IT employees are remotely located. This further aids to employee flexibility as this approach does not require frequent team and client meetings like scrum. (ISQA 8220 Notes)
The setting in both Lord of the Flies and I Only Came to Use the Phone contributes to the dehumanization of the characters in each of the readings. The settings are both isolated, which is the cause of all the chaos that takes place because when you take a human being out of the comfort of society, they go back to their natural animalistic tendencies in order to survive. Survival of the fittest is present in these quotes. Also, the island archetype plays a huge role in both of the stories.
Process philosophy is known as the idea that everything is changing. Over the years, process philosophy has changed the way humans exist and go about their day to day lives. In order to fully grasp the concept of process philosophy we will first take a closer look at process philosophy, as a whole, its history, and the ideas behind this particular philosophy. Then we will discuss the effects process philosophy has had on marriage and family, followed by a brief commentary.
The Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) consists of phases used in developing a piece of software. It is the plan of how to develop and maintain software, and when necessary, replace that software. In 2007 during my hospital’s transition to a new software system, I was fortunate enough to be included in the process. I did not get involved until the implementation phase, but from then on, until now, I remain very active in the process. I decided to highlight the Waterfall Model of SDLC. The Waterfall Model is a “sequential development process” with each phase continuing in a line (McGonigle and Mastrian, 2012, p. 205).
Any business or business process has had to face a certain level of re-engineering or reconstruction in order to fit into the managerial revolution of the 1990s and the move into the 21st cent...
Consequentially, the Waterfall consists of seven procedural steps followed in linear order, but possess small gates where information, specifications, and designs are reviewed. The seven procedural steps performed by software companies, according to Lotz (2013): “1. Gather and document requirements, 2. Design, 3. Code and unit test, 4. Perform system testing, perform user acceptance testing (UAT), 6. Fix any issues, and 7. Deliver the finished product.” However, the Waterfall methodology clear and defined linear plan provides development teams distinct guidelines for each phase of development, but the methodology still possesses pros and cons for usage. The advantages of the methodology are discipline provided by the procedural phase structure, current phase of the development team easily identifiable by vendor and client, and provides efficient knowledge transfer between team members. (Melonfire, 2008) Furthermore, the associated disadvantages of the methodology are the phases are not flexible to change, developers cannot return to a previous phase, and originally develop designs are not feasible. Finally, the trait of not being flexible deems Waterfall appropriate for well-defined projects, and projects with a fixed-price, a fixed-timeline, and a none adjustable scope. (Base36,
A software development process, also known as a software development life cycle (SDLC) can be explained as a structure, imposed on the development of a software product. The software development life cycle (SDLC) is an umbrella term for the overall process of developing, implementing, and retiring information systems through a multiple step process from initiation, training, documentation , design, analysis, maintenance, and consulting.
In our opinion, Phased development known and usually as product-oriented processes because the phased development process is sequence of mini project (series of sub-module are conducted parallel). Phased development process always using to develop software or system. In addition phased development usually always using for the big project to deliver. This process is to complete the project which can be said to be a big project and divide the work required by section to be completed faster. Based on the phased development framework can be seen every phase of the distribution is required to get the job done their part to ensure that the work is more organized and running smoothly. 2 or Phase 2 to Phase 3 and will be done in parallel. This matter is to complete the project faster. Often the process is repeated until the phase 3 where the process in phase 3 phase which is often no more last changer after the user reviews of the client but can be repeated until phase 5 if there is dissatisfaction with the client for a job until the client says the project has met the criteria they want. The example project for phased development is to develop system for Campus Management System KPTMKL. We give an example of this is a relatively large system to complete is develop Campus management system for students KPTMKL. This system is to enable students to refer their personal data, financial education, examination results and also the subjects taken by them. Next, to get all this information should be applicable to all the units work together as registration unit, ASAD unit, and financial unit and examination units. This process involves four parts to get the job ...
During this research only three methodologies wiz Rational Unified Process (RUP), Rapid Application Development (RAD) and Extreme Programming (XP) are considered. The paper is divided into 6 sections. Section 2 & section 3 describe about the basics software development methodologies (RUP, XP, RAD) and Fuzzy Logic respectively. In section 4, our proposed approach is discussed while section 5 concludes the
Given the time, it takes to develop large sophisticated software systems it not possible to define the problem and build the solution in a single step. Requirements will often change throughout a projects development, due to architectural constraints, customer’s needs or a greater understanding of the original problem. Iteration allows greater understanding of a project through successive refinements and addresses a projects highest risk items at every stage of its lifecycle. Ideally each iteration ends up with an executable release – this helps reduce a projects risk profile, allows greater customer feedback and help developers stay focused.
The SSADM methodology is known as a clear organised methodology which can create well- recognised, and correct information systems, if used competently. It has been observed that SSADM is very challenging to practice, nevertheless, it plays an important part in projecting and examining the information systems. Moreover, it identifies the ensuing phases in the SDLC (systems development lifecycle). It can be said that SSADM utilise a top-bottom approach in order to accomplish the objectives at every stage. Although there are other methods for software development in managing product development such as Agile SCRUM methodology too, however, for this considered case (Fixit TV and Video Repairs), SSADM has been selected. This paper demonstrates an appropriate method for the project as well as the justification of this selection in comparison to agile SCRUM methodology.
In incremental model the whole requirements are divided into different builds. Multiple development cycles take place here. Cycles are divided up into smaller, more easily managed modules. Each module passes through the requirements, design, implementation and testing phases. A working version of software is produced during the first module.Each sub...
The Unified Modeling Language is a standard language for specifying, visualizing, constructing, and documenting the artifacts of software systems, as well as for business modeling and other non-software systems. The key is to organize the design process in a way that clients, analysts, programmers and other involved in system development can understand and agree on. The UML provides the organization. The UML was released in 1997 as a method to diagram software design, by some of the best minds in object oriented analysis and design. It is by far the most exciting thin to happen to the software industry in recent years. Every other engineering discipline has a standard method of documentation. Electronic engineers have schematic diagrams; architects and mechanical engineers have blueprints and mechanical diagrams. The software industry now has UML.
Within the analysis phase a set of goals are needed within the domain. From this there are three perspectives which are taken; the object model the Ronald LeRoi Burback (1998) states “dynamic model, and a functional model. The object model represents the artifacts of the system. The dynamic model represents the interaction between these artifacts represented as events, states, and transitions. The functional model represents the methods of the system from the perspective of data flow.” After the analysis phase the system design phase takes place. Here the system is sub-categorized and appointed tasks and persistent data storage is established, also within this phase the architecture is formed. Lastly the object design phase starts and is where the implementation plan is established and algorithms and object classes are also
