Back in February of 2001, a small group of seventeen software developers met in the high elevations of Snowbird, Utah to discuss software development methodologies. Out of this assemblage emerged the Manifesto for Agile Software Development, a publication that outlined the group’s vision for lightweight software development, and which would go… continue reading →
Today we’ll be taking a closer look at a unique, yet rather popular, software development model, colloquially known as the Big Bang model. While the tenets of the Big Bang model, such as they are, are almost excessively simple, use of the model should not be wholly discarded or ignored, as it… continue reading →
The V-Model is a unique, linear development methodology used during a software development life cycle (SDLC). The V-Model focuses on a fairly typical waterfall-esque method that follows strict, step-by-step stages. While initial stages are broad design stages, progress proceeds down through more and more granular stages, leading into implementation and coding, and… continue reading →
The iterative model is a particular implementation of a software development life cycle (SDLC) that focuses on an initial, simplified implementation, which then progressively gains more complexity and a broader feature set until the final system is complete. When discussing the iterative method, the concept of incremental development will also… continue reading →
First introduced by Dr. Winston W. Royce in a paper published in 1970, the waterfall model is a software development process. The waterfall model emphasizes that a logical progression of steps be taken throughout the software development life cycle (SDLC), much like the cascading steps down an incremental waterfall. While… continue reading →
Rapid application development (RAD) describes a method of software development which heavily emphasizes rapid prototyping and iterative delivery. The RAD model is, therefore, a sharp alternative to the typical waterfall development model, which often focuses largely on planning and sequential design practices. First introduced in 1991 in James Martin’s book by the… continue reading →
Some more specific takes on SDLC include: Rapid Application Development Test-Driven Development Waterfall Model Iterative Model Extreme Programming Scaled Agile Framework Agile Model Scrum Rational Unified Process Big Bang Model V-Model Conceptual Model Kaizen Model Kanban Model Software Development Life Cycle The Spiral Model – first described by Barry Boehm in… continue reading →
System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a series of six main phases to create a hardware system only, a software system only or a combination of both to meet or exceed customer’s expectations. System is a broad and a general term, and as per to Wikipedia; “A system is a… continue reading →
The Software Development Life Cycle is a process that ensures good software is built.
