a linear sequential (non-iterative) design approach for software development, in which progress flows in one direction downwards through the phases of conception, initiation, analysis, design, construction, testing, deployment and maintenance.
The incremental build model is a method of software development where the product is designed, implemented and tested incrementally (a little more is added each time) until the product is finished. It involves both development and maintenance
What is the Reuse-oriented software engineering process model
Although the initial requirements specification stage and the validation stage are comparable with other software processes, the intermediate stages in a reuse-oriented process are different
A como of iterative and incremental process models with focus on adaptability and customer satisfaction by rapid delivery of working software product. This Method breaks the product into small incremental builds. These builds are provided in iterations.
Individuals and interactions over processes and tools -Working software over comprehensive documentation -Customer collaboration over contract negotiation -Responding to change over following a plan
Small or medium-sized software products/teams -Customer committed to be involved in the development process -Limited number of external rules and regulations affecting the software -Requirements change often -Culture that thrives in chaos
Inexperienced engineers! -Difficult to keep the interest of customers who are involved in the process -The intense involvements characterizing agile methods may not work for the development team -Strict contracts required upfront
