Waterfall
Sequential design

process
Progress is seen as
flowing steadily
downwards (like a
waterfall) through
SDLC

Prototyping
Creating prototypes of

software applications
i.e. incomplete
versions of the
software program
being developed
A prototype typically
simulates only a few
aspects of, and may
be completely different
from, the final product.

Incremental Build Model


The model is designed,

implemented and tested


incrementally (a little
more is added each
time).
Finished when satisfies
all the requirements.
Combines the elements
of the waterfall model
with the iterative
philosophy of
prototyping.

Iterative and Incremental Development


Iterative and

incremental
development is any
combination of both
iterative design or
iterative method and
incremental build
model for
development.

Incremental vs. Iterative

A Bit Different Understanding

Effort in Iterative Development

Spiral Model
Combining elements of

design and prototypingin-stages


Combines the features
of the prototyping and
the waterfall model
The spiral model is
intended for large,
expensive and
complicated projects
Advantages of top-down
and bottom-up concepts

Background
Top-down

Bottom-up

deductive reasoning

inductive reasoning

analysis or

synthesis

decomposition
Descartes
G => 1

Bacon
1 => G

RAD
Minimal planning and

fast prototyping.
Developing instead of
planning
The lack of preplanning generally
allows software to be
written much faster,
and makes it easier to
change requirements.

Cleanroom
The Cleanroom process

embeds software
development and testing
within a statistical quality
control framework.
Mathematically-based
software development
processes are employed
to create software that is
correct by design, and
statistical usage testing
processes are employed
to provide inferences
about software reliability.

This systematic process

of assessing and
controlling software
quality during
development permits
certification of software
fitness for use at
delivery.

Agile
Group of software

development methods
Based on iterative and
incremental development
Most important phrases
self-organizing, cross-functional

teams
adaptive planning,
evolutionary development and
delivery,
a time-boxed iterative
approach,
rapid and flexible response to
change.

A conceptual framework
The Agile Manifesto in 2001.

Scrum
Scrum is an iterative and

incremental agile
software development
framework
A flexible, holistic
product development
strategy
Development team
works as an atomic unit
Opposing to sequential
approach

Lean (Kanban)
A translation of lean

manufacturing
principles and
practices
Toyota Production
System,
Today part of Agile
community.

Lean Principles
1. Eliminate waste
2. Amplify learning
3. Decide as late as

Extreme Programming (XP)


Improve software quality

and responsiveness to
changing customer
requirements
A type of agile software
development
Frequent "releases" in
short development
cycles
Introduce checkpoints
where new customer
requirements can be
adopted.

XP Concepts (examples only)


Pair programming
Planning game
Test-driven

development
Continuous integration

DSDM
An agile project delivery framework,

primarily
DSDM fixes cost, quality and time at
the outset and uses the MoSCoW
prioritization of scope
Pareto principle

M - MUST: Describes a requirement

that must be satisfied in the final


solution for the solution to be
considered a success.
S - SHOULD: Represents a highpriority item that should be included
in the solution if it is possible. This is
often a critical requirement but one
which can be satisfied in other ways
if strictly necessary.
C - COULD: Describes a
requirement which is considered
desirable but not necessary. This
will be included if time and
resources permit.
W - WOULD: Represents a
requirement that stakeholders have
agreed will not be implemented in a
given release, but may be
considered for the future.

Test-driven development (TDD)


Relies on the repetition

of a very short
development cycle: first
the developer writes an
(initially failing)
automated test case that
defines a desired
improvement or new
function, then produces
the minimum amount of
code to pass that test,
and finally refactors the
new code to acceptable
standards.

Test-first programming

concept of extreme
programming in the
beginning
Today standalone
methodology

Feature-driven development (FDD)


Iterative and

incremental
development process.
An Agile method
Driven from a clientvalued functionality
(feature) perspective
Mostly part of other
methodologies

Rational Unified Process (RUP)


An iterative software

development process
framework created by the
Rational Software
Corporation (IBM)
Not a concrete
prescriptive process, but
an adaptable framework,
intended to be tailored by
the development
organizations
Expected to select
elements of the process
that are appropriate

V-model
The V-model is an

extension of the
waterfall model.
Show the relationships
between development
phases and test
phases
Time and project
completeness vs. level
of abstraction

Dual Vee Model


Describes a model of

complex development
For example:
Hardware
Platform
Application software

Development of a system's

architecture is the big V


Components/entities

developments are the small


V-s

It shows interactions and

sequences of developing a
complex system and a
system of systems.

Shouldnt forget

WATERFALL
Details

Waterfall #1
Jump to next phase only if the prior one is completed
PROs
Detailed early analysis cause huge advantages at later phases
If a bug found earlier, it is much cheaper (and more effective) to fix
than bugs found in a later phase
Requirement should be set before design starts
Points to importance of documentation (minimized broken leg
issue)
Disciplined and well-structured approach
Effective for stable software projects
Easy to plan from project management point of view

Waterfall #2
CONs
Changes are expensive
Client does not explicitly know what he or she wants
Client does not explicitly know what is possible to have
Need to finish every phase fully
Long projects, difficult to keep the plan
Designers may not know in advance how complex a features
implementation
Measure twice, cut once
