Software Development Life Cycle
  1. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE MODEL
    1. Requirements-gathering
      1. During the requirements-gathering phase, the needs of the company are outlined.
      2. Design
        1. during the design phase, the designers attempt to turn the dreams of the managers and users into reality.
        2. Implementation
          1. In the implementation phase, the results of the design phase are translated into program code.
          2. Testing
            1. In the testing phase, the results of the implementation phase are run through a series of tests to verify that it functions and that it meets goals of the requirements phase.
          3. WATERFALL LIFE CYCLE MODEL
            1. Advantages of the Waterfall model
              1. The Waterfall model is appropriate for small development projects in which the requirements are well understood.
              2. Disadvantages of the Waterfall model
                1. the Waterfall model is inappropriate for complex projects. It should not be used for developing object-oriented software, for long-term or ongoing projects, or for projects in which requirements are unknown or subject to change.
              3. V-SHAPED LIFE CYCLE MODEL
                1. Advantages of the V-Shaped model
                  1. the V-Shaped model is appropriate for small development projects in which requirements are well understood.
                  2. Disadvantages of the V-Shaped model
                    1. The rigidity of the V-Shaped model makes it inappropriate for most projects.
                  3. INCREMENTAL LIFE CYCLE MODEL
                    1. Advantages of the Incremental model
                      1. Generates a working prototype early in the development process.
                      2. Disadvantages of the Incremental model
                        1. The Incremental model is less risky than the Waterfall or V-Shaped models, but it may be inappropriate for large, long-term projects.
                      3. SPIRAL LIFE CYCLE MODEL
                        1. Advantages of the Spiral model
                          1. The customer is given many opportunities to evaluate the software and plenty of time to ease into adoption of the software.
                          2. Disadvantages of the Spiral model
                            1. The Spiral model is inappropriate for use in small and medium-scale projects that are not mission-ctical.ri
