The waterfall model is a breakdown of developmental activities into linear sequential phases, ... or returning to the design phase if downstream phases are deemed ...
V-Model (software development) - an extension of the waterfall model Unified Process (UP) is an iterative software development methodology framework, based on Unified Modeling Language (UML). UP organizes the development of software into four phases, each consisting of one or more executable iterations of the software at that stage of ...
Big design up front (BDUF) is a software development approach in which the program's design is to be completed and perfected before that program's implementation is started. It is often associated with the waterfall model of software development. Synonyms for big design up front (BDUF) are big modeling up front (BMUF) and big requirements up ...
A phase-gate process (also referred to as a waterfall process) is a project management technique in which an initiative or project (e.g., new product development, software development, process improvement, business change) is divided into distinct stages or phases, separated by decision points (known as gates).
In software development, the V-model [2] represents a development process that may be considered an extension of the waterfall model and is an example of the more general V-model. Instead of moving down linearly, the process steps are bent upwards after the coding phase, to form the typical V shape.
The method uses 7 phases which are successively executed, like the waterfall model. The phases are: Information planning: Problem definition and initial plan; Definition study: Requirements analysis and revised plan; Basic Design: High level technical design and revised plan; Detailed Design: Building the system (and revised plan)
According to Royce in the process model "the design iterations are never confined to the successive step", and for that model without iteration is "risky and invites failure". [3] As alternative Royce proposed a more incremental development, where every next step links back to the step before. The 'classical' waterfall model is figure 2.
User design is a continuous interactive process that allows users to understand, modify, and eventually approve a working model of the system that meets their needs. Construction phase – focuses on program and application development task similar to the SDLC. In RAD, however, users continue to participate and can still suggest changes or ...
