Description: This
session provides brief overviews of the major SDLC's, from
Waterfall through RAD and E-Programming. It then goes on to
explain the V-Model and Quality Gates, along with the specific
entrance and exit criteria and the major tasks for each phase
of software development.The importance of the appropriate life cycle to the
success of the project is explained.Emphasis is on the pros and cons of using the different
life cycles.An
exercise is given which describes various projects and asks
the students to match the project with the appropriate life
cycle.
