Introduction
In order to complete that task, the main requirements of task are there is require to express the
two iterative lifecycles models’ examples and two sequential lifecycle models with proper
introduction, advantage and disadvantage. I am going to express the example of two iterative and
sequential models as well as there is require to express the different risk points in spiral model
which are create negative impacts to our software development process. There is also verify to
those risk how they are impact to spiral model.
Software Development Life Cycle
Iterative model: In the Iterative model, iterative process starts with a simple implementation of
a small set of the software requirements and iteratively enhances the evolving versions until the
complete system is implemented and ready to be deployed.
An iterative life cycle model does not attempt to start with a full specification of requirements.
Instead, development begins by specifying and implementing just part of the software, which is
then reviewed to identify further requirements. This process is then repeated, producing a new
version of the software at the end of each iteration of the model. (Tutorialspoint.com, 2019)
Iterative process starts with a simple implementation of a subset of the software requirements
and iteratively enhances the evolving versions until the full system is implemented. At each
iteration, design modifications are made and new functional capabilities are added. The basic
idea behind this method is to develop a system through repeated cycles (iterative) and in smaller
portions at a time (incremental).
In this incremental model, the whole requirement is divided into various builds. During each
iteration, the development module goes through the requirements, design, implementation and
testing phases. Each subsequent release of the module adds function to the previous release. The
process continues till the complete system is ready as per the requirement.
The key to a successful use of an iterative software development lifecycle is rigorous validation
of requirements, and verification & testing of each version of the software against those
requirements within each cycle of the model. As the software evolves through successive
cycles, tests must be repeated and extended to verify each version of the software.
(Tutorialspoint.com, 2019)
Like other SDLC models, Iterative and incremental development has some specific applications
in the software industry. This model is most often used in the following scenarios −
(Tutorialspoint.com, 2019)
A new technology is being used and is being learnt by the development team while
working on the project.
Resources with needed skill sets are not available and are planned to be used on contract
basis for specific iterations.
There are some high-risk features and goals which may change in the future.
Software Development Life Cycle
Incremental Model is a process of software development where requirements are broken down
into multiple standalone modules of software development cycle. Incremental development is
done in steps from analysis design, implementation, testing/verification, maintenance.
Each iteration passes through the requirements, design, coding and testing phases. And each
subsequent release of the system adds function to the previous release until all designed
functionality has been implemented. (Guru99.com, 2019)
Software Development Life Cycle
The system is put into production when the first increment is delivered. The first increment is
often a core product where the basic requirements are addressed, and supplementary features are
added in the next increments. Once the core product is analyzed by the client, there is plan
development for the next increment.
Test Once the system is deployed, it goes through the testing phase
Advantages Disadvantages
Thought the development stages Each iteration phase is rigid and does
changes can be done not overlap each other
(Guru99.com, 2019)
Agile Model
Agile SDLC model is a combination of iterative and incremental process models with focus on
process adaptability and customer satisfaction by rapid delivery of working software product.
Agile Methods break the product into small incremental builds. These builds are provided in
iterations. Each iteration typically lasts from about one to three weeks. Every iteration involves
cross functional teams working simultaneously on various areas like −
Planning
Software Development Life Cycle
Requirements Analysis
Design
Coding
Acceptance Testing.
At the end of the iteration, a working product is displayed to the customer and important
stakeholders. (Tutorialspoint.com, 2019)
What is Agile
Agile model believes that every project needs to be handled differently and the existing methods
need to be tailored to best suit the project requirements. In Agile, the tasks are divided to time
boxes (small time frames) to deliver specific features for a release.
Iterative approach is taken and working software build is delivered after each iteration. Each
build is incremental in terms of features; the final build holds all the features required by the
customer. (Tutorialspoint.com, 2019)
The Agile thought process had started early in the software development and started becoming
popular with time due to its flexibility and adaptability.
The most popular Agile methods include Rational Unified Process (1994), Scrum (1995),
Crystal Clear, Extreme Programming (1996), Adaptive Software Development, Feature Driven
Development, and Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM) (1995). These are now
collectively referred to as Agile Methodologies, after the Agile Manifesto was published in
2001.
understand the information for software functionality, performance and interface. Customer
requirement should review the both system and software.
Design
The design for software is multi step process that focuses on four thing of program, data
structure, software architecture, interface representations. The design process for customer
requirement into UI of the Software that can ability for quality before coding begin.
Customer requirement, the design is report and becomes part of coding for software.
Coding
The design must be translated into a machine-readable. The code can be perform every task.
If design is performed every detailed each program, developer can be code change
mechanistically.
Testing
Once code has been created, then software-testing start. The testing main focus on the logical
internal for the software, ensure that all functionality has been tested and on the functional
externals; that carry out the test to bug or error and ensure that defined input will produce
actual work that agrees with required result. (Producttribe.com, 2019)
Design
First phase get all requirements should be clear then go to design the system, no coding
require during this phase, can be identified for every unit the software requirement along
hardware requirements. Then the design are made for client require suitably. The
interrelation between the different designs of the software can identified and the
connections are made, using algorithms and diagram.
Software Development Life Cycle
Implementation
In this phase, the actual develop of the software. This is also known by the coding and
verification phase. Developer take information all about the requirement from the
previous stage and written by software program. For every module, software code is
written and then go too tested, to check if the correctly every functionality proper
working.
Testing
With coding of the application complete, the testing of the written code of the product
can be start. Testing for designed software any not proper working any program. Ensure
that customer interested of created the software a proper execution any program, will be
satisfied with the finished product. If there any problem of functionality of the software
we should step back to the design phase.
Deployment
In this phase, the product on complete and developer sent to deliverables to deployed or
released.
Maintenance
This is final phase of the waterfall model, are some issues come up in the client. To fix
that issue a functionality then patches are released. Once the software has been deployed,
in case customer ask any change in functionality, then the entire process is restarted.
The usage
Projects which not focus on changing the requirements, for example, projects initiated from a
request for proposals (RFPs), the customer has a very clear documented requirements.

Each phase has specific deliverables. Costly and required more time, in
addition to the detailed plan.
V-Shaped Model
It is an extension of the waterfall model, Instead of moving down in a linear way, the process
steps are bent upwards after the implementation and coding phase, to form the typical V shape.
The major difference between the V-shaped model and waterfall model is the early test planning
in the V-shaped model.
This is the first phase in the development cycle where Customer requirements are understand
of the product. This phase help of customer requirement to understand his what expectation

and exact demand involve in communication with customer. This is phase very important
activity to need managed the customer are not sure what actual they need.
Requirement and analysis phase also similar of the waterfall model with an additional testing
plan includes. It includes the acceptance test design planning with business requirements that
can be used as input for acceptance testing’s. (Onestoptesting.com, 2019)
Design
Design phase of verification is also mention to as High Level Design (HLD). In this,
understand for architectural specifications of system ad designed of the system at high level.
Usually in this phase, more than one technical approach is proposed and financial feasibility
the final decision taken about project.
In the requirement, analysis phase of system design is break down into modules taking up
further. One of these modules is mention as High Level Design (HLD). They main functional
of this module the begin data transfer and communication between the internal modules and
the outside world. (Onestoptesting.com, 2019)
Module Design
The module design phase is known as Low Level Design (LLD) module of system design
phase. The modules design is a more compatible other than modules in the system
architecture and the other external systems. The unit test is main part of any development
process and help of minimize the fault and errors at a very early stage. These unit tests can be
designed in this stage based on internal module design. (Onestoptesting.com, 2019)
Coding Phase
The coding phase is at the bottom of the V-shaped module. The coding mean is development
of system module to design in the design phase and taken up in the coding phase of V-shaped
module. In other word this phase the module design transform into the writing code by
design and development prowess.
The best suitable programming language to write code on the system and architectural
requirements. The coding phase is performed by using client requirement help of guideline
the writing coding. The code goes to write number code review and more optimized for

(Onestoptesting.com, 2019)
Validation Phases
The validation phase of V-model include more satisfies to various product design and
customer satisfaction the product using high level checking system. Validation process is
more properly checking and testing the real product with proper functionality. Several phase
includes in validation phase of V-model are as follows;
Unit Testing
If you designed for system, we should validation test for module design phases. Every
writing the code to executed the function on the unit testing for module code. This is
testing which run on code and help of remove the bug or error at an early stage, through
all defect cannot be uncovered by unit testing.
(Er.yuvayana.org, 2019)
Integration Testing
The integration-testing can performed to check the validity of the entire system
functionality of the module after integration process completed. System testing is directly
associated with system design phase. Most be software and hardware compatibility issues
cannot full covering during this system test execution.
(Er.yuvayana.org, 2019)
Acceptance Testing
The testing module associated with the client requirement analysis in this phase and
include testing the product in suitable environment. Most of testing hardware and
software uncovering the compatibility issues include the other system available in the
suitable environment. It also discovery the not proper working functionality such as load
and performance defect in the actual user environment.

spiral Model
Spiral model is a combination of sequential and prototype model. This model is best used for
large projects which involves continuous enhancements. There are specific activities which are
done in one iteration (spiral) where the output is a small prototype of the large software. The
same activities are then repeated for all the spirals till the entire software is build.

Once the risk are identified, risk mitigation strategy is planned and finalized.
Document, which highlights all the rights and its mitigation, plans.
In spiral model is not easy to understand for beginner developer so they required more
highly experience and knowledge developer. That organization should paid hug amount
to developer so they going to must expensive for organization also ever time organization
not afford to hire experience developer.
In spiral model, they should be tight schedule to develop the software of iteration model
so they time is not flexibility to complete at accurate time so these is more probability to
damage of product. So organization to manage anything in proper time so these will =be
expensive for organization.
These give much time to analysis the phase of spiral model because that involve of
milestone in model. These milestones are affect by project development lifecycle.

These are overall impact different risk of spiral model in process of development of software. So,
project will be damage and so they not able to develop requirement of customer due to impact of
project. There are mention of impact of risk in spiral development model.
Spiral model should be hire highly skill and knowledge developer to participate them of
spiral development model
They need to use advanced and high-quality technology to analysis the spiral
development phase, analysis, management of development process.
In this spiral development model, use more reliable, simple and effective resource for
requirement than complex resource requirement reduce of produce of risk so easy to
manage for developing process.
There are all mention to manage risk in spiral model because if we not capable to control
and manage the risk for develop the software for spiral mode. I am all mention use of spiral
model.
Concision:
In this way there is mention waterfall software development for development of application as
well as there is mention appropriate reason and points with respects of different sectors and
organization because all small and middle-class organization and business company using
application and software are develop by developer by using of that model. Otherwise, other
Software Development Life Cycle
models are complicated and they are requiring high requirements for developing of applications.
That is why small company are not able to efforts such as high requirement and budget to

1. You are required to produce a documentation that explains the purpose of the
feasibility
4. Carry out the feasibility study as per the best of your previous research work
against the solution to be developed for the given problem and assess the impact of
different feasibility criteria on the software investigation.
Introduction: In the above task in order to complete that task, the main requirements of task are
I should have to express proper introduction of feasibility report and then after express main
purpose of preparing of feasibility report in software development. These all are the overall
requirements of task so first I am going to express the introduction of feasibility report. Also I
should have to express the introduction of technical feasibility and mention their importance and
role then after mention, how technical solutions can be compeering. These all are the overall of
task so I am going to mention full introduction of technical feasibility.
Feasibility report: Feasibility report is the results of the feasibility study. A feasibility study is
a way to evaluate the practicality and desirability of a project. Before a company invests time
and money into a project, they need to know how successful the project will be before investing.
Sometimes companies want to understand input costs, the amount of research that will need to be
done, or even the marketability of a project. With input prices, it is essential that companies
understand, (even before they put time and research into the project), how much it would cost to
go through with their product. Companies also like to know if they put time into research and go
through with their change or promotion of a product, how the public/people will react to the
change. Will people be fighting over the new product or will it fall through? The purpose of
Software Development Life Cycle
feasibility studies is to provide companies information and analysis on whether or not you or
your company should pursue this course of action.
Feasibility reports are usually used to sway decision makers towards one direction or the other.
Many times there is only one course of action but, there needs to be a second course of action.An
analysis and evaluation of a proposed project to determine if it is technically feasible is feasible
within the estimated cost and will be profitable. Feasibility studies are almost always conducted
where large sums are at stake.
How Feasibility study is conducted for ensuring the maintenance of the new system and
application. Some of the points why we need feasibility study are:
- Helps to minimize the risk by studying all the factors like: Technical, legal, social, economic
feasibility etc.
- Mostly feasibility study helps to increase the investment in the system because the possible
risk is minimized
- It helps to improve the decision-making capability by providing the valuable information
- It also helps to know whether the system meets the expectation of the client and user or not.
A feasibility study is an important part of any software development process because the
feasibility study deals with the cost required for the developing and executing the project, time
required for the development in each phase of the system. If the study is not made wisely then
the organization or the developer has to face the failure in the development cycle. The analysis is
made on what software to use for developing the system. This study and analysis would help to
choose the best implementation for system and the organization. This feasibility study includes
factors like how to install, how to develop and so on. This feasibility study, in short, includes the
analysis of technical areas. This analysis helps the efficiency of the system developed to get
improved. This is because by choosing the correct technology by making an analysis on the
needs of the system helps in improving the efficiency of the system.
Hence, a good feasibility study will make the development of the project effective so that we can
make the feasibility report. The feasibility report is the paper, made on the base of the feasibility
Software Development Life Cycle
study that provides the constraint of whether it is possible with any constraint like financial,
social, economic, technical and legal. (Courses.lumenlearning.com, 2019)
- Technical feasibility means technical component of project. For technical feasibility some of
the technical things like data protection, inputs and outputs their process etc. for the
development resources should be available and for the technical problems in the development
technical teams should be ready to overcome that problems. (Courses.lumenlearning.com,
2019)
Introduction – You need to persuade the decision maker to even consider any sort of
alternative. You need to convince them to even read your report first. Tell them what they
will gain personally or as an organization by considering your work.
Criteria/Constraints – You must specifically map out the criteria of what the ideal
outcomes are. This will allow you to make practical and logical decisions. You can present
the criteria in your feasibility report in one of two ways. First, you can separate the criteria
into its own section. This is best when you have a extensive report and you need to go in-
depth with the explanation. Second, you can incorporate the criteria throughout your report
as the criteria become relevant. However, it is important to realize that whichever strategy
you chose make sure that the criteria is introduced early in the report. It is also very
important to map out the constraints of your suggested solutions. This will show the
audience that you understand and acknowledge the fact that no solution is perfect. This
will also make sure that the audience makes the decision in their best interest.
Method – It is very important to present facts that are accurate and relevant. You should
state the reliable sources you used and what method they came from (internet,interview,
book, etc.). Without a credible research method or credible sources your document itself
will lack credibility.
Overview of Alternative Options – You must underline the key features of each
possible option. Make sure they are easy to understand and presented in a friendly layout.
Keep in mind that the goal is to allow your audience to make the best decision.
Software Development Life Cycle
Evaluation – This should be the bulk of your report, you must evaluate the options using
the criteria you created. Add graphs, charts, etc. to show that you have studied your
options, and have come up with statistics that back up your reasons as to why your
alternative beats the competition.
Conclusions – You need to state the conclusion you have came up with. How did you
evaluate the alternatives? And then from there, which alternative best fit your organization.
Recommendations – You need to use your experience and knowledge in order to state
which option you think should be adopted.
In a projects lifecycle, the project feasibility study is the second document that is created
following the business case. The purpose of this study is to determine the factors that will make
the business opportunity that was presented in the business case a success.
Included in the project feasibility study will be the exploration of the main focus of the business
opportunity along with the alternative paths it could follow. By collecting this data, management
can then make an informed decision on which path should be pursued in order to create the most
profitable revenue stream for the company.
To get a project feasibility study started, the use of a feasibility study template is the most
efficient means to progressing this document so a final draft can then be implemented. The
template will already have the document outlined with the appropriate sections created. It will
also be in the most efficient order so following the document by the feasibility team can
commence with little to no bottlenecks that might impede its progression.
The project feasibility study will explore the different markets where a target audience might be
located. There should also be alternative target audiences and their location explored. Along with
the target audience, other factors that need to be investigates is how acceptable the deliverable is
Software Development Life Cycle
to the propose target audience. There should be several different variations that can include size
and color difference. This permits the best possible response so the right product can be
produced for the right customers.
The project feasibility study also has to explore the price the target audience is willing to pay for
the deliverable. If it is a great product that is in need, but overpriced, it will not be acceptable by
the market and could fail.
These are just some of the factors that have to be considered when undertaking a project
feasibility study. This importance of this document can never be underestimated since the
success or failure of your project is riding on the results it discovers. (Blog.method123.com,
2019)
3. To know the actual requirement of society and modifying the project on the needs of the
people.
4. To make the project technically available resource by researching on the hardware and
software need of the project.
5. To complete the project in time with the requirement fulfill of the client as well as the people
and society. (Blog.method123.com, 2019)
2. It helps to give the project group and teams more focus and provides an alternative outline
for solving the project.
3. It gives the wide information about whether the project is feasible from all the constraint like
cost, time, legal and technical manner.
4. It helps to identify the new opportunities in the project by providing the information of the
current state of the market, peoples thinking etc.
Software Development Life Cycle
5. It identifies the risk of the project and provides valuable information for a “go/no-go”
decision.
6. It also makes us alert about the future risk and provides the reason not to make proceed in the
project.
As discussing the feasibility study and making report of feasibility study I have to go through
some technical solution to implement the functionality in the insurance company. How the
insurance company and their policy will make the technical solution by doing different testing,
going through different methodology and development of the software.
Technical solution
The purpose of Technical Solution (TS) (CMMI-DEV) is to select, design, and implement
solutions to requirements. Solutions, designs, and implementations encompass products, product
components, and product related lifecycle processes either singly or in combination as
appropriate.
Technical Solution specific practices apply not only to the product and product components but
also to product related lifecycle processes. In Agile environments, the focus is on early solution
exploration. By making the selection and tradeoff decisions more explicit, the Technical Solution
process area helps improve the quality of those decisions, both individually and over time.
Solutions can be defined in terms of functions, feature sets, releases, or any other components
that facilitate product development. When someone other than the team will be working on the
product in the future, release information, maintenance logs, and other data are typically included
with the installed product. To support future product updates, rationale (for trade-offs, interfaces,
and purchased parts) is captured so that why the product exists can be better understood. If there
is low risk in the selected solution, the need to formally capture decisions is significantly
reduced.
We cannot tell in this way we can evaluate technical solution. It depends upon the factor who
will be audience and in which situation the solution document has been identified.
Some of the points to make technical solution of software designing of my project are:
- By analyzing the current data and process to implement new developing process by
understanding and making research by new requirement management process.
- Getting through all the requirement of user as well as stakeholders and then making
solutions.
- By having all the required information about the process so that we will be able to provide
reliability, availability and scalability of the system fluently. - By addressing the positive and
negative both side of a system - Making solution based on risk, assumption and future scope.
- Taking system through all kind of the testing before launching the website.
- It helps to clarify the needs of user & stakeholders in order to complete effectively.
- By the help of the technical solution we can demonstrate the product in step by step follows.
- Failure of the system and bad impact in organization can be minimized using technical
solution.
- We can easily trace fault in the system as the system goes through different testing in the
time of designing, accessing, and implementation.
project phases have utilize of different technology methods for complete, solve and mange of
project. I am going to express the evaluation of use of different technical solution on the base of
different phase’s description of project.
Data gathering -In process of development of project, the first phase of project is
gathering of information and data of system so during gathering of data information there
is using different technical devices such as internet online, computers, websites and social
media for gathering of public view. By the help of use that technical equipment, we
easily collect huge amount of public view, different online information from internet so
not spends more time to gathering of information. That technical devices are also solve
different issue and troubleshoot.
Project design -In the case of system design of project having, utilize different technical
solutions and methodology as well as different devices, program such as grant chart,
Microsoft SQL server, visual studio, etc. that technical devices are help to draw effective
design of project or software by including of all collecting requirement of system. There
is different types of design are involve in project such as conceptual design, product
interior, outer, graphical design etc. these all types of design are complete by help of
technical devices and equipment so these all technical design have their own individual
role and action.
Project implementation -In the case of implementation of project based on resources
collection and prepares product design there is utilize different technical tools mean our
resources and design are combine to implement by help of utilization of all organization
system and devices, as well as there is using different infrastructures for converting of
data one format to another. Our project implementation is complete after combining of
collecting resources and design to each other by help of use of infrastructure and tools.
Project Testing - In the process of project testing phase, There is also using different
types of technical tools for testing because in project development have involve different
types of testing such as unit testing, integrating testing, system testing, black box, white
box and grey box testing. These all testing are perform only by help of otherwise that
testing phase is not complete so there is different technology and tools are play great role
and all testing tools have their own importance and role during project testing.

Software Development Life Cycle
Part: 3
1. Undertake the software investigation to meet the business need using appropriate
software analysis tools/techniques to carry out a software investigation and create a
supporting documentation. You may submit this task in the form a report
structured with background information, problem statements, data collection
process and summary etc. In order to carry out the systems investigation you are
required to identify the stakeholders, identify the requirements of the client, specify
the scopes like inputs, outputs, processes and the process descriptors, consideration
of alternative solutions and security considerations and the quality assurance
applied. You are also required to identity the constraints like costs, organizational
policies, legacy systems, hardware requirements etc. For software analysis you may
use the following tools: Data Flow Diagram up to second level and Entity
Relationship Diagram
2. Reference to your task above that required some level of intensive research work
analyze how software requirements can be traced throughout the software lifecycle.
3. Discuss different approaches to improve the software quality and considering the
above context discusses the two approaches that can be applied at this context to
improve the software quality.
4. Critically evaluate how the use of the function design paradigm in the software
development lifecycle can improve the software quality. Support your ideas with
reference to the tasks you have done.
Introduction:
In the above task in order to complete that task, the main requirements of task are I should have
to express the all requirements and needs have been meet of scenario organization by proper
under investigation of software. The main lists of requirements of task are – description of
software analysis tools, prepare documentation and as well as prepare report structure include
background information, problem, data collection process and overall summary. Then after
mention the identify of stakeholder, client requirements, specify scope like input, output, process
Software Development Life Cycle
descriptor, include alternative solution and security as well as apply of quality assurance. Then
after also require identifying constraints like costs, organizational policies and legacy system and
hardware requirements. There is mention following tools in software analysis -
These all are collection of software analysis tools, which are apply in different phase of software
investigation for complete of development and solving of all development risk, issue. However,
there is also requiring documentation that is help to utilize of these all tools in investigation
process.
In the process of software investigation process first required to mention all previous information
about software investigation process so before to software investigation, process background
information are
In this way for our software investigation, required report structure is complete as requirements
of scenario and task so that in investigation is handling by help of report structure.
Stakeholders:
Simply, stakeholder refer to a group of people, person or organization who have interest and
concern in business organization, company or any particular project. These people are complete
involve with their cross ponding organization or project. In our insurance company, have also
many stakeholders such customers, manager, employee, management, sponsors. Stakeholders are
provides full support to makes profits to organization by any way, directly or indirectly method.
If company have go on loss their main impact goes to their company stakeholders.
Requirements of clients:
1. Our company client are want to solve that software issue by using of different problem
solving methodology
2. Client are require to back up their hacked personal data information
3. They are require to modify and improve company network security
4. They are require to change some company policies
5. They require to some financial help from company
Software Development Life Cycle
Specify of scopes:
In the case of scope in software investigation process have includes input, output, process,
process descriptor, consider of alternative solution, security and applied quality assurance.
Input : Simply, input means any kind of source or data are send devices for processing
action so all devices are working as input first they are access to data and then gives
result. Such as our data collection process, first we collect our all data without processing
and then after apply of filtering and data analysis and then collect accurate and effective
data.
Processes - Processing is the process of data arranging, filtering and analysis after input
the all-collecting data. That step is importance because all accuracy, collect useful data
these all actions are perform in that phase. That is one-step before the result. Our data
collecting process have involved that phase and by the help of that step, we are able to
collect filtering and accurate data.
Output - Output is step in which we are achieve our final data from processes phase so
after processing of data then they are goes out for final utilization. Similarly, as we are
utilize our collecting data information after final processing (filtering, analyze, arrange)
with free from impurity. Output data are completely pure, useful and clear for utilize in
our software investigation or development.
Process descriptors - Actually, process descriptor is a set of information that is clarify
the status of data resources in process phases. Every process descriptor is providing
definition location status of their corresponding process. In system of data have huge of
process and that process descriptor is provide record of each corresponding resource
status in process.
Alternative solution - In that software investigation, process is not effective for solving
of software vulnerability, software problem so we should have keep really our alternative
plan and solution for solving of software vulnerability attack. Every problem should have
to need and should be available alternative plan and solution – I thing company should
have to apply PDCA problem-solving methodology for handle, manage, controlling of
software vulnerability attack or other issue. Company should have to setup a software
vulnerability detecting team with specialist for managing and controlling of system
vulnerability attack immediately after attack.
Software Development Life Cycle
Then after there is, also require identifying of some different components, which are also play-
role in our software investigation process.
data about case. As well as in software investigation officer are traveling in different place so
that time we should be pay. In the large project, investigation process having already decided and
separate project investigating budget. And whole investigation complete by that budget.
Organization policy -
In organization policy is decide by organization for controlling of all restricted action also for all
actions should have perform in a limited boundaries. Different rules, principle and guidelines are
adopts by organization for achieving of long-term goal and objectives. In addition, such types of
policy and rules are apply for inform to organization employee. In that organizational policies
have including of all problem solving methodology, illegal activates, project scopes, role and
responsibility of employee. Our company has also prepared policies and we always perform
based of that policies rules, regulation and procedures. That policies are provides different types
of working environment and discipline. On the basis of save policies our software investigation
process id going on same rule, regulation, procedures and method are apply in investigation
process.
Legacy system -
Actually, legacy system is refer to technology, software program or device which are utilize in
organization having many year and long-term. Such types of system are reliable for organization
because they are running before long-term effectively without any issue. Therefore, our
organization has to need of present condition because most of using software and device are not
working long-term then organization should high pay for buy every year so such types of system
are not suitable for our company. We need a like legacy system device and software and
technology are implement in system. These all are legacy system, which are still using in
different sectors such as – Voice main system, apple IIGS machine and Intel 480 machine. Such
types of legacy system are role-play in our software investigation process in data gathering,
evidence clarification etc.
Hardware requirements -
In our project having apply of different hardware components in software investigation and
development because both case are require use of hardware with better quality. In organization
having use different types of hardware so these all are hardware requirements for using device in
project development in organization.
Software Development Life Cycle
These all are minimum hardware requirement in hardware, which are apply in software
investigation process in organization.
In this way, there is mention all requirements of task with short description and identification as
well as there is mention their role and importance toward software investigation as requirement
of scenario. However, there is also requiring to, express data flow diagram up to second level
and draw entity relationship diagram so there is express how these are role-play in software
analysis process.
that apparatuses are, help to programming examination. These all examination devices and
procedures are separately backing to programming examination since that all are perform
activities are have a place with examination. I am going to make reference to, how these all
examination devices and systems complete the product examination. There is notice job and
capacity of all instruments in programming examination with separately.
i. Data flow diagram (DFD): A data flow diagram (DFD) maps out the flow of
information for any process or system. It uses defined symbols like rectangles, circles and
arrows, plus short text labels, to show data inputs, outputs, storage points and the routes
between each destination. Data flowcharts can range from simple, even hand-drawn
process overviews, to in-depth, multi-level DFDs that dig progressively deeper into how
the data is handled. They can be used to analyze an existing system or model a new one.
Like all the best diagrams and charts, a DFD can often visually “say” things that would
be hard to explain in words, and they work for both technical and nontechnical audiences,
from developer to CEO. That’s why DFDs remain so popular after all these years. While
they work well for data flow software and systems, they are less applicable nowadays to
visualizing interactive, real-time or database-oriented software or systems.
(Lucidchart.com, 2019)
That serves to correspondence current framework data to clients so clients have
full data of each force of framework.
That is additionally planning reporting record of framework and that
documentation are submit to examination as a proof.
These all means are full help to do the product examination so without utilization of
that investigation systems these all help are not accomplish by programming
examination that examination will be not finished,
Software Development Life Cycle
ii. Use case diagram: A use case is a methodology used in system analysis to identify,
clarify, and organize system requirements. In this context, the term "system" refers to
something being developed or operated, such as a mail-order product sales and
service Web site. Use case diagrams are employed in UML (Unified Modeling
Language), a standard notation for the modeling of real-world objects and systems.
The boundary, which defines the system of interest in relation to the world around it.
The actors, usually individuals involved with the system defined according to their roles.
The use cases, which are the specific roles played by the actors within and around the
system.
The relationships between and among the actors and the use cases
completely changing the working technique of framework. Along these lines, that devices
if gives documentation, and practicality report of various area of association just as
programming advancement. Examination gathers all confirmations from possibility and
our examination is finished. That attainability record is makes simple to programming
examination. (Lucidchart.com, 2019)
iv. Interview: Meeting is additionally an apparatus for framework investigation on the
grounds that amid improvement of venture previously required to comprehend subtleties
of undertaking yet these all subtleties are gives by head worker or client. Hence, that time
meet is ideal approach to gather data by converse with them yet additionally we ought to
need to get ready as of now with arranged rundown of inquiry or subject and idea of
exchange. That device is viable on the grounds that all discourse is happen up close and
personal. Our everything uncertainty and perplexity are additionally finished around then
likewise gather diverse option data from seniors. Those apparatuses likewise apply on
programming examination. That instrument is gives generally speaking clear and
particular data about task. That data is progressively adaptable and applies on various
periods of programming. That product examination device is additionally supporting to
programming examination since that is gives full arrangement and insights concerning
programming issue and critical thinking innovation By help of meeting gathering of
various individuals view and thought for oversee and controlling of venture.
(Lucidchart.com, 2019)
v. Grant diagram: Concede diagram is another product investigation apparatuses and that
is gives the data of datelines of undertaking fruition. During the time spent advancement
of venture, that time there is draw a time span there is notice legitimate time term of task.
In the concede diagram, draw any sort of course of events for task. Indeed, even that
stipends graph incorporates course of events for all period of venture. Our task
improvement process is likewise running as course of events of gifts diagram generally
that venture are not finished in time. That course of events gives precise data of parts of
creating venture. We are effectively examination of required time and furthermore make
changing or adjust on advancement if time is sufficient. The give visit is gives confirms
about accessible time venture. In venture there is required to attract distinctive course of
events diverse stage. That instrument is likewise help to gathering of archive of task
Software Development Life Cycle
based course of events of allow outline. Since are likewise plan documentation dependent
on the time allotment. That instruments is furnishes time span of undertaking with
explanation so these all poofs are sufficient for programming examination complete. So
programming is complete after gives confirmations. (Lucidchart.com, 2019)
Along these lines there is notice all prerequisites of errand, for example, their, is express full
presentation of programming investigation apparatuses and procedures. Their significance then
after express assessment of utilization of these all instruments in programming examination so
all apparatuses are full help to programming examination and give proof as proof so along these
lines there is finished all necessities of errand.
What's more, that is the reason it's classified "Element" "Relationship" chart (ERD)!
When we talk about substances in ERD, frequently we are alluding to business items, for
example, individuals/job (for example Understudy), unmistakable business objects (for example
Item), elusive business objects (for example Log), and so forth. "Relationship" is about how
these elements identify with one another inside the framework.
Software Development Life Cycle
DATA FLOW DIAGRAM: An data flow diagram demonstrates the manner in which data
moves through a procedure or framework. It incorporates information sources of info and yields,
information stores, and the different subprocesses the information travels through. DFDs are
assembled utilizing institutionalized images and documentation to portray different elements and
their connections.
data flow diagram outwardly speak to frameworks and procedures that would be difficult to
portray in a lump of content. You can utilize these outlines to delineate a current framework and
improve it or to design out another framework for usage. Envisioning every component makes it
simple to recognize wasteful aspects and produce the most ideal framework. (Lucidchart.com,
2019)
Software Development Life Cycle
Level 1 DFDs: Level 1 DFDs are as yet a general outline, yet they really expound than a setting
chart. In a dimension 1 information stream outline, the single procedure hub from the setting
chart is separated into subprocesses. As these procedures are included, the graph will require
extra information streams and information stores to connect them together. (Lucidchart.com,
2019)
Software Development Life Cycle
Level 2+ DFDs: Level 2+ DFDs essentially separate procedures into increasingly itemized
subprocesses. In principle, DFDs could go past dimension 3, however they once in a while do.
Level 3 information stream charts are itemized enough that it doesn't normally bode well to
separate them further. (Lucidchart.com, 2019)
Software Development Life Cycle
Conclusion:
In this way there is mention all requirements of task such as there is express the different
approach and techniques for improving and increasing of quality of software as requirement of
client and organization. That both approaches are must consider weakness of software and then
solving of those all weak points because before to remove weak points of software we cannot
improving of software quality as requirement of client. These above mention techniques and
methods are definitely improving of our software quality. In this way there is mention all
requirements of task such as there is express different software analysis tools and techniques
Software Development Life Cycle
which are play great role in software investigation process and how they are help to investigating
of our developing software performance and provides result of all individual phase of software.
Part: 4
1. Prepare a documentation that explains how user and software requirements have been
addressed. You may tabulate this task with the columns that has the expected client
requirements and the actual output of the product to be developed after the appropriate
analysis.
2. Discuss about the different software specification methods and suggest two software
behavioral specification methods and illustrate their use with an example relevant to the
project that needs to be constructed for the given context. Some of the software
specification techniques include flowcharts, pseudo code and formal specification methods
and so on.
3. Differentiate between a finite state machine (FSM) and an extended Finite State
providing an application for both.
4. Present justifications of how data driven software can improve the reliability and
effectiveness of the software.
Introduction -
In the above task in order to complete that task, the main requirements of task are I should have
to express how users and software requirements have be addressed so there is express description
of users and software requirements. In addition, theirs is mention in tabular form with columns
includes expected client requirements and actual outputs after analysis of software development.
These all are the overall requirements of task. I am going to express short individual description
about software requirements and users.
user requirement -
An effective set of users requirements are essentially needs project development, to be makes
successfully But there is different project development process are going to fail due to lack or
miss of user requirements. So that time that we are not specifies what the system actually should
do. So developer have adjusting different troubleshoot because there is already agreement of
deliver of project clarify of software developing budget even decided venue. These users’
requirements are collecting as user points of view mean before to developing of software project
we are especially meet to user for gathering of user points of view and user requirement. What
kinds of requirements, facilities and technology are wants to user to implement in project, these
all details are and requirements data are provides by user to developer. Developer have also first
responsibility to collect users requirement because software development main motto to satisfy
to users by developing of software as requirement of users.
For any software project development process collecting of users requirements is most
importance because developer is definitely include and implement all requirement of user in
software but. in many case of software development users are not satisfy because user are
provides different requirements but developers are implement different so that time such types of
software are not satisfy and full fill user requirements. So users requirements is the main based
of software development so what requirements are provides by users that all requirements are
developer should have to implement.
Software Development Life Cycle
1. Software requirements -
Above mention all questions’ answer are provides by software requirements. That is provides
best description, specifications of software-based solution for implement of to complete the need.
Actually, software requirement of organization consider these all points during software
development process -
Problem statement
Project vision
Project constraints
Project objectives
Project scope
Software Development Life Cycle
administrative functions
business rules
authentication and authorization
external interface
reporting and documentation requirements
These all services are provides by functional of software requirement then after implement of
non-functional that is provides services toward system are –
performances
capacity
reliability
security
reliability and recoverability
These all facility are provides by non-function in system so by implement of both functional and
non-functional that both are provides different facility and help to developing a quality software
as need of client.
. During apply of user and software requirements that time software requirements specification is
most importance because that is specifies better requirement for utilize with respective condition,
affect all things are most consider on that time because most of software development is damage
and not complete because apply requirements resources are not favorable for system and
situation. That time decreasing of quality of software. In this way in software development
lifecycle, both user and software requirements have been addressed both are most importance
addressed to each other in case of apply and in software development and full fill requirements.
We should have to focus on both requirements in development process otherwise; our
development is definitely damage or not develops as need of organization. Both are should have
to includes and apply effectively.
Another requirement of task is I should have to tabulating with column to listing of expected
client requirements and actual output of product to developed after requirement analysis -
In the development of product, apply different requirement such as user and software
requirement. These all requirement are gathering and apply of development so all are working
effectively as expectation in all stage and phase but also after deeply analysis of requirement
most of requirements are apply in development not suitable for product. In addition, condition is
also not favorable then that phase result is also not satisfied us mean result is just appositive of
client expectation so I am going to mention client expected requirement and actual product
output.
Conclusion: These are the tabulation of client expected requirement and actual output of product
in this way most of time developed product is not represent as need and expected output from
client because. there is something missing of left main be technology are not successfully
implement, resources requirements are not implement so overall many issue product are
represent wrong output or these are not manage or full fill requirement of client, which these are
expected. Same miss understanding happen in our developing software project. Finally, all
requirements are successfully complete.
